We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. Nothing is taken off the wall. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped toiletries and an antique basin with chips.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What affects the price in Hemblington
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole basin

- Details of any past repairs
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
When to call us in Hemblington
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Crazing in the glaze
- A chipped vanity basin
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- What preparation is included
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What aftercare is recommended
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common questions in Hemblington
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Do you cover Hemblington?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Hemblington from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you cover the whole of Norfolk?

Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
