When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Widespread crazing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Ledston
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice
Should you replace it?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
What you get with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- Everything repaired in place
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
See our prices page.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Ledston, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
