Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Questions from Whitwell
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Repair chips before they stain
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

What we are called out for in Whitwell
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Look out for any of the following:
- A chipped basin edge
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- An antique basin with chips

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Whitwell
