Questions from Melton Constable
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Sink repair in Melton Constable without replacing anything
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Whether it’s crazing in the glaze and knocks from hair straighteners, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Repair chips before they stain
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
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.
