How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t overtighten taps
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repair or replace in Tapton?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tapton
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- How many areas need work
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Widespread crazing
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
