Our sink repair service in Greater London

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is typically repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Typical jobs include a period basin that needs restoring and fine cracks across the glaze, across enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
The finish is matched to the glaze.
We polish it into the surrounding surface.
The basin can generally be used later that day or the following day.

Cost

Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

Natural light rather than flash
One sharp close-up of the damage
Your postcode, so we can check dates

Repair or replace?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems.

What your quote should include

How to care for the finish
A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
How the colour is matched
Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

Do not overtighten taps
Keep straighteners away from the basin
Use mild cleaners only
Store toiletries on a shelf

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Questions from Greater London

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Typically, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
