Sink repair at your home in Trawden
Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. We’re often asked to fix cracks around the tap holes or waste and knocks from hair straighteners, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Repair chips before they stain
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
