About our sink repair in Mill Street
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips around the rim and chips from dropped toiletries.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

FAQs for Mill Street
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Normally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Work for landlords and builders
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.
For anyone letting property in or around Mill Street, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
