Sink repair in Aldwych, done in place
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Typical jobs include a chipped vanity basin and crazing in the glaze, on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One-year guarantee on every repair

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use mild cleaners only
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Signs you need sink repair in Aldwych
Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- An original basin worth saving
- Knocks from hair straighteners
