About our sink repair in Ripple
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We’re often asked to fix knocks from hair straighteners and an original basin worth saving, in vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ripple
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Ripple. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
