Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Swindon. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
There are no surprise 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.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Swindon as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
