About our sink repair in Martin
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We work on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are a crack near the taps and a period basin that needs restoring.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
