- Repairs from £95
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A crack near the taps
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use mild cleaners only
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Sink repair at your home in Dormston
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about chips around the rim and chips from dropped toiletries.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Questions from Dormston
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
