About our sink repair in Badby
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Common call-outs are for an original basin worth saving and fine cracks across the glaze, on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Your questions about sink repair in Badby
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do you cover the entire of Northamptonshire?
We cover the whole UK, including Badby and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
