- A period basin that needs restoring
- A crazed, tired basin
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Chips from dropped toiletries

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Melton Mowbray: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you cover Melton Mowbray?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Melton Mowbray from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

In many cases. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
