About our sink repair in Plaitford
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 repair technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips around the rim and knocks from hair straighteners.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Landlord and trade work in Plaitford
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Plaitford

FAQs for Plaitford
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Typically, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Common problems we fix in Plaitford
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- An antique basin with chips
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Chips on a built-in basin
Questions to ask before you book
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the room is protected while they work
- How long it needs to cure
- What prep work is covered
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Repair or replace in Plaitford?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
