Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
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.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What else we do in St Bride's Minor
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What we’re called out for in St Bride's Minor
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A crack near the taps
- A period basin that needs restoring
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who will actually do the work
