Questions from Cross in Hand
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Cross in Hand. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Signs you need sink repair in Cross in Hand
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips from dropped toiletries
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price covers travel
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around Cross in Hand, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
