Sink repair in Mills Hill without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are cracks around the tap holes or waste and a chipped basin edge.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Questions from Mills Hill

What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
