Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
How we handle sink repair in Kessingland
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about a crazed, tired basin and knocks from hair straighteners.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What affects the price in Kessingland
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Kessingland. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole basin
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not overtighten taps
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
