Sink repair in Westbury-on-Trym, done in place
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. Whether it’s an original basin worth saving and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, we can typically put it right, on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use mild cleaners only
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Plumbing leaks
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
