Sink repair in Tholomas Drove without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. If you’re dealing with an antique basin with chips and a chipped basin edge, we can normally put it right, on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Tholomas Drove and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. 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 most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid abrasive pads
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
The process
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
