We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.

Repair or replace in Shewalton?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
When to call us in Shewalton
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Chips around the rim
- Chips from dropped toiletries
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How changes to the job are handled
- What prep work is covered

Common questions in Shewalton
Do you cover Shewalton?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Shewalton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
