Sink repair at your home in Marshborough
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are cracks starting at the waste and chips on a built-in basin.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Get chips repaired early
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Your questions about sink repair in Marshborough
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Marshborough use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
