Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
How we handle sink repair in Washingley
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. Nothing is taken off the wall. If you are dealing with chips around the rim and a crack near the taps, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Common questions in Washingley
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Do you cover Washingley?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Washingley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Washingley and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
