Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- 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 generally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Widespread crazing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Why repair rather than replace?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When to call us in Coneyhurst
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A crack near the taps
- A chipped basin edge
What to look for in a quote
- How soon you can use it again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- If travel is included in the price
- What preparation is included
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Wipe the basin over after use, 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.
