About our sink repair in Calcott's Green
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. Our technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped toiletries and cracks around the tap holes or waste.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a couple of hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Why Calcott's Green clients choose us
- A fixed quote before you book
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Calcott's Green. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Common problems we fix in Calcott's Green
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
People typically call us after spotting one of these:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A crazed, tired basin
