The process
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Meinciau use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Meinciau. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
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.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
