DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What else we do in Winterbourne Monkton
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
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.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Winterbourne Monkton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Common problems we fix in Winterbourne Monkton
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Fine cracks across the glaze
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What aftercare is recommended
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Don’t overtighten taps
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Most jobs done in one visit

Winterbourne Monkton: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Winterbourne Monkton.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
