Sink repair in Blackney, done in place
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about crazing in the glaze and a chipped basin edge.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire basin
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins

What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price

Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Questions from Blackney
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Do you come to Blackney?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Blackney and the rest of Dorset. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
