Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
About our sink repair in Watley's End
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. Our repair technicians work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are a period basin that needs restoring and cracks starting at the waste.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Watley's End and across South Gloucestershire.

What affects the price in Watley's End
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you are in Watley's End and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. 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.
