Our technicians work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and people most often call us about cracks starting at the waste and a chipped vanity basin.

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Get chips repaired early
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips around the rim
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Cracks starting at the waste

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
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.
Frog End questions
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
