About our sink repair in Dobs Hill
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and people most frequently call us about a chipped basin edge and knocks from hair straighteners.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
