The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Get chips repaired early
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
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.

Calrofold: your questions answered
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Cheshire East, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
