How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Middleton Tyas: your questions answered

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Typically, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Are there extra charges for Middleton Tyas?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What affects the price in Middleton Tyas

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Middleton Tyas, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Repair or replace in Middleton Tyas?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Leaks from the fittings

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
