- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaks from the fittings
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Dingley
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Dingley. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Dingley, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
