Common problems we fix in Townfield
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A crazed, tired basin
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site
The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Plumbing leaks
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace in Townfield?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Townfield. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- No need to remove anything

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Townfield questions
Is my repair covered?

Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of County Durham. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Do you work in Townfield?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Townfield. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
