How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
What affects the price in Shilton
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Shilton. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
When to call us in Shilton
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A chipped basin edge
- A crazed, tired basin
- An original basin worth saving
- Knocks from hair straighteners
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Repair or replace in Shilton?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
