How we handle sink repair in Birchanger
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 are often asked to fix cracks around the tap holes or waste and a period basin that needs restoring, in Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

When to call us in Birchanger

- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
What to look for in a quote

- How the room is protected while they work
Landlords, agents and businesses in Birchanger
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Birchanger
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What affects the price in Birchanger
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Birchanger. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
