What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Questions from Doe Bank
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do you cover the entire of Birmingham?
All of Birmingham, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price 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 quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
