Sink repair in Branksome Park, done in place
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. If you’re dealing with a crack near the taps and chips from dropped toiletries, we can help, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Questions from Branksome Park
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you cover Branksome Park?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Branksome Park for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

What affects the price in Branksome Park
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the whole basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a couple of hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Advice
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Don’t overtighten taps
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
