DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Sink repair in Crossapol without replacing anything
We match the glaze as well as the colour. Repairs are polished to the same shine. If you’re dealing with chips from dropped toiletries and chips on the rim or front edge, we can help, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
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. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire basin
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.
