Sink repair in Meltham, done in place
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. If you’re dealing with crazing in the glaze and knocks from hair straighteners, we can normally put it right, on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Repair chips before they stain
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Meltham questions
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Meltham included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Advice
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
