Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not overtighten taps
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Grindleton questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
