When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Do you need sink repair in Ranby?
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Crazing in the glaze
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- An original basin worth saving
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How changes to the job are handled
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
