Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
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.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Colour-matched on site
- Everything repaired in place
- One-year guarantee on every repair

What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Widespread crazing

Questions from Heaton Norris
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
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 landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we are called out for in Heaton Norris
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- An original basin worth saving
- Knocks from hair straighteners
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What prep work is covered
- How changes to the job are handled
- How your room will be protected
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
