What your basin is made of matters
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.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Questions from Langley Bottom
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How much does sink repair cost in Langley Bottom?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Langley Bottom. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive

- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
