Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 typically the cheaper route.
Repair or replace in Elliots Green?
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. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Signs you need sink repair in Elliots Green
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A chipped vanity basin
What your quote should include

- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Elliots Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
