- Repairs from £95
- An antique basin with chips
- A crack near the taps
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Sink repair in Lower Clopton, done in place
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is typically repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We work on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped vanity basin and an original basin worth saving.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Lower Clopton: your questions answered
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Landlord and trade work in Lower Clopton
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
What affects the price in Lower Clopton
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
