Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you cover Hilton?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Hilton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Hilton
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
What affects the price in Hilton
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Hilton
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Hilton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why Hilton clients choose us
- Everything repaired in place
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Work done at your home or business

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
