Sink & basin repair in Clifton, Bristol
Our repair technicians come to Clifton for chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- An original basin worth saving
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Sink repair at your home in Clifton
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Common call-outs are for crazing in the glaze and chips from dropped toiletries, across vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What we cannot put right

- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin

Why repair rather than replace?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
Questions from Clifton
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Clifton.
Do you work in Clifton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Clifton and the rest of Bristol. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use gentle cleaners
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
