DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How we handle sink repair in Willingham by Stow

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not overtighten taps
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
