Sink repair in Bowers Gifford without replacing anything
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are cracks starting at the waste and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bowers Gifford and across Essex.

Bowers Gifford: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Bowers Gifford?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SS13 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire basin
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Widespread crazing
- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
