How we handle sink repair in Lower Strode
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and fine cracks across the glaze.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
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.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Your questions about sink repair in Lower Strode
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Lower Strode. Prices don’t change with location.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
