What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
About our sink repair in Wissington
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are chips around the rim and an original basin worth saving.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Wissington and across Essex.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Wissington, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wissington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job.

Your questions about sink repair in Wissington
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
