About our sink repair in Allington
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We are frequently asked to fix chips on the rim or front edge and cracks starting at the waste, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Allington
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Allington, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Allington questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you work in Allington?
We do. We send a technician to Allington for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Dorset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
