What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Tarrant Gunville questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Tarrant Gunville included. Travel is included in the price.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover Tarrant Gunville?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Tarrant Gunville from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Repair or replace in Tarrant Gunville?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Repair chips before they stain
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
