About our sink repair in Kingston Gorse
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. If you’re dealing with crazing in the glaze and a chipped vanity basin, we can normally put it right, on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common problems we fix in Kingston Gorse

- A period basin that needs restoring
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Chips on the rim or front edge

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
- Get chips repaired early
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
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.
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 polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Kingston Gorse, and we will reply with a fixed price.
