Sink repair in Cropwell Bishop, done in place
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and people most often call us about chips from dropped toiletries and crazing in the glaze.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For a price in Cropwell Bishop, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Store toiletries on a shelf
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
