Sink repair in Holcot without replacing anything
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We’re often asked to fix a chipped vanity basin and chips from dropped toiletries, across antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlord and trade work in Holcot
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
For anyone letting property in or around Holcot, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Repair chips before they stain
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Repairing versus replacing in Holcot
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
