Chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins for householders, landlords and businesses in Lower Green. Send pictures for a free, fixed quote.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped vanity basin
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
About our sink repair in Lower Green
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Typical jobs include chips on the rim or front edge and a period basin that needs restoring, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access

Questions from Lower Green
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Are there extra charges for Lower Green?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Work done at your home or business
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Nothing taken out or refitted

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
