How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The material
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire basin
If you are in Freshford and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Common questions in Freshford
Can I get a quote without a visit?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Repairing versus replacing in Freshford
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
