Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Widespread crazing

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Common questions in North End
Do you cover North End?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to North End from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Send us photos and we will tell you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Are there extra charges for North End?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
When to call us in North End
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.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- An original basin worth saving

Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
