How we handle sink repair in Lepton
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We are frequently asked to fix a chipped vanity basin and cracks starting at the waste, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Common questions in Lepton
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Do you cover Lepton?
We do. Technicians travel to Lepton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Widespread crazing

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, 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.
