Sink repair in Ringwood, done in place
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Common call-outs are for damage to a basin in a vanity unit and a crazed, tired basin, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Your questions about sink repair in Ringwood
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Do you work in Ringwood?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ringwood. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
