What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Rusher's Cross. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Repairing versus replacing in Rusher's Cross

The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often 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. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
