Sink repair in Mile Oak, done in place
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped toiletries and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Questions from Mile Oak
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Mile Oak and the rest of Staffordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
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.
