Sink repair in Orton-on-the-Hill without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips around the rim and an original basin worth saving.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
- Use mild cleaners only
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
