Sink repair at your home in Gibraltar
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. If you are dealing with a crazed, tired basin and a period basin that needs restoring, we can usually put it right, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Common questions in Gibraltar
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Lincolnshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Gibraltar and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

- Fine cracks across the glaze

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not 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, a professional repair is worth it.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use mild cleaners only
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
