Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- 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 the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job.
Advice
What affects the price in Cressage
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Cressage. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Landlord and trade work in Cressage
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Questions from Cressage
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
