About our sink repair in Ponciau
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We’re often asked to fix a chipped basin edge and chips on a built-in basin, across antique & period basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LL14 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Common questions in Ponciau
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
