About our sink repair in Yatts
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is usually repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We work on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are knocks from hair straighteners and a chipped basin edge.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

FAQs for Yatts
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
When to call us in Yatts

- A crazed, tired basin
- A crack near the taps

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use mild cleaners only
- Get chips repaired early
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. 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.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Landlords, agents and businesses in Yatts
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
