Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Sink repair in Duffus without replacing anything
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Typical jobs include a crack near the taps and a period basin that needs restoring, on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Should you replace it?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use gentle cleaners
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Questions from Duffus
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Duffus. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire basin
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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 usually the cheaper route.
