About our sink repair in Birchgrove
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. If you are dealing with a crazed, tired basin and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can help.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Birchgrove and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. 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 it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What affects the price in Birchgrove
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Birchgrove. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Your questions about sink repair in Birchgrove
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Birchgrove. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Repair or replace in Birchgrove?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
