How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, 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.

Questions from Laindon
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Widespread crazing
- Plumbing leaks
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
