What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found 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.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t overtighten taps
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Common questions in Upper Basildon
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
