Landlord and trade work in Annesons Corner
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Sink repair in Annesons Corner, done in place
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped toiletries and a chipped basin edge.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
If you are in Annesons Corner and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the area is dry

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Your questions about sink repair in Annesons Corner
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you cover Annesons Corner?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Annesons Corner from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What your basin is made of matters
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. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
What we are called out for in Annesons Corner
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
