Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
For a price in Hatton Heath, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use gentle cleaners
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Common questions in Hatton Heath
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Do you come to Hatton Heath?

Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
