What else we do in Coniston
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Coniston, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairing versus replacing in Coniston
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. 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 regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
