Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Tattershall questions
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LN4 postcode.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Tattershall.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What else we do in Tattershall
What we are called out for in Tattershall
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- An antique basin with chips
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What prep work is covered
- When it can be used again
Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
