When to call us in Mutford
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
Common reasons people in Mutford contact us are:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Crazing in the glaze
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

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
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Mutford. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
Most customers in Mutford get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
