How we handle sink repair in Lydiate Ash
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is generally repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We regularly repair enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the rim or front edge and a crazed, tired basin.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
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.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
