Sink repair in Arthingworth, done in place
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We are often asked to fix a period basin that needs restoring and crazing in the glaze, on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Arthingworth use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair

What affects the price in Arthingworth
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Arthingworth. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Arthingworth. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Arthingworth: your questions answered
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
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.
