Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Repair chips before they stain

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Questions from Ingbirchworth

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Will you remove the sink?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
