DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Sink repair at your home in Eston
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our technicians work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips on the rim or front edge.
Around Eston, basins in family bathrooms and cloakrooms see daily use. A chip or crack can typically be repaired in place.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Redcar and Cleveland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days. Around Eston, parking is generally easy, so arranging the visit is straightforward. Just mention if the basin is upstairs or in a flat.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- 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
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them

- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace in Eston?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. In a town like Eston, a replacement may not match the rest of the room, whereas repairing keeps the room matching.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
