Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
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.

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. Our technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips on a built-in basin and a period basin that needs restoring.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Your questions about sink repair in Ford
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you come to Ford?
We do. We send a technician to Ford for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Are there extra charges for Ford?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What affects the price in Ford
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Avoid abrasive pads
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
