Materials and what they mean for the repair
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 polish the repair to suit.
About our sink repair in Hockerley
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about a period basin that needs restoring and cracks starting at the waste.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
If you manage property in Hockerley, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Hockerley
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
