The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Tanfield use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in North Yorkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Common questions in West Tanfield
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Are there extra charges for West Tanfield?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No extra charge for your area
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
