The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare

Advice
How we handle sink repair in Rosliston
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. If you’re dealing with a period basin that needs restoring and chips from dropped toiletries, we can help.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Repairs by material
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.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
FAQs for Rosliston
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Rosliston. The price depends on:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the whole basin
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
