Questions from South Owersby
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When to call us in South Owersby
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- An original basin worth saving
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Chips on a built-in basin
Before you book anyone
- How changes to the job are handled
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the room is protected while they work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to South Owersby. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in South Owersby, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
