About our sink repair in Becontree Heath
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the rim or front edge and cracks around the tap holes or waste.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
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.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Common questions in Becontree Heath
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Greater London.
Do you cover the whole of Greater London?
The whole UK, including all of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Are there extra charges for Becontree Heath?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
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
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
What affects the price in Becontree Heath
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Becontree Heath. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For a price in Becontree Heath, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Becontree Heath
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Becontree Heath use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
