What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

FAQs for Tewitfield

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Tewitfield. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
If you are in Tewitfield and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repair or replace in Tewitfield?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
When to call us in Tewitfield
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- An antique basin with chips
- A crack near the taps
- Chips on a built-in basin
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the price covers travel
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Do not overtighten taps
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. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
