Sink repair in Kirklington, done in place
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Typical jobs include chips from dropped toiletries and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access

For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Common questions in Kirklington
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What affects the price in Kirklington
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
