DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Sink repair in Marple Bridge without replacing anything
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We regularly repair antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on a built-in basin and fine cracks across the glaze.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Marple Bridge

Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
