Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use mild cleaners only
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A fixed quote before booking
- Work done at your home or business

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings

How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically 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.
Signs you need sink repair in Coleorton
Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- An original basin worth saving
- Fine cracks across the glaze
Before you book anyone
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long it needs to cure
- What prep work is covered
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Coleorton questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
