Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Widespread crazing
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Chilgrove. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Chilgrove: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you cover the entire of West Sussex?
We cover the whole UK, including Chilgrove and the rest of West Sussex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Chilgrove.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
What we are called out for in Chilgrove
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Chips around the rim
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips from dropped toiletries
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What aftercare is recommended
- If travel is included in the price
Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
