We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. Nothing is taken off the wall. We work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are knocks from hair straighteners and a chipped vanity basin.

Cockyard: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work 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.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Landlord and trade work in Cockyard
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Derbyshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
