About our sink repair in Redvales
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We’re frequently asked to fix a crack near the taps and chips around the rim, in antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Redvales
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A chipped vanity basin

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive

Your questions about sink repair in Redvales
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you work in Redvales?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Redvales from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- We leave the room as we found it
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Colour mixed on the day to match

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not overtighten taps
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
