Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Your questions about sink repair in Rippingale
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlord and trade work in Rippingale
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lincolnshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For anyone letting property in or around Rippingale, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
