About our sink repair in Carclaze
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is usually repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are knocks from hair straighteners and chips on a built-in basin.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Carclaze and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Repair or replace in Carclaze?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Landlord and trade work in Carclaze
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Carclaze use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Carclaze, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
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 price, not a guess.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
