Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
How we handle sink repair in Coton Clanford
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are an antique basin with chips and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Signs you need sink repair in Coton Clanford

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
Questions from Coton Clanford
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Coton Clanford?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
