Sink repair in Dummer without replacing anything
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. If you’re dealing with knocks from hair straighteners and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can generally put it right, on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dummer
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Widespread crazing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Dummer. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What affects the price in Dummer
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Dummer, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
When to call us in Dummer
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Crazing in the glaze
- An original basin worth saving
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Comparing quotes
- What aftercare is recommended
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How soon you can use it again
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Questions from Dummer
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
