Our technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips from dropped toiletries and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Ireton Wood, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Derbyshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
