How we handle sink repair in Tuxford
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Whether it’s knocks from hair straighteners and chips on a built-in basin, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Repair chips before they stain
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Tuxford questions
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Do you cover the entire of Nottinghamshire?
The whole UK, including all of Nottinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
