Signs you need sink repair in Dunholme
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A crazed, tired basin
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A crack near the taps
- Chips around the rim
If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as Church of St Chad, period sanitaryware is worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
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.
Basins in Dunholme homes
We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you look after a building such as Dunholme St Chad's Church of England Primary School, toilets and washrooms can be repaired in place too.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
