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.
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.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Use gentle cleaners
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
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.
When to call us in Milbourne
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A crack near the taps
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- An original basin worth saving

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
