The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Plumbing leaks
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

- If travel is included in the price
- Aftercare advice

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What affects the price in Upper Saxondale
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Any details about the material
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

FAQs for Upper Saxondale
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Nottinghamshire.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
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.
