What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Repair chips before they stain
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What affects the price in Coppice
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
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.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Widespread crazing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Questions from Coppice
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you cover Coppice?
We do. Technicians travel to Coppice from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Typically, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Common problems we fix in Coppice
Fine crazing in the glaze is usually down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A chipped vanity basin
- A chipped basin edge
- An original basin worth saving
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is matched
- How to look after the finish
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Nothing taken out or refitted
