How we handle sink repair in Warminster
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Common call-outs are for a crazed, tired basin and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, in Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Get chips repaired early
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 and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Wiltshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Widespread crazing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Questions from Warminster
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
