Sink repair in Lothersdale without replacing anything
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Typical jobs include chips around the rim and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, across vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
In a village like Lothersdale, older cottages sometimes have period basins and toilets, and those are worth keeping. We work around original marks where possible.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Common problems we fix in Lothersdale
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you care for a building such as Lothersdale Primary School, toilets and washrooms can be repaired in place too.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
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.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not overtighten taps
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lothersdale. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
