About our sink repair in Broomfield
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are a crack near the taps and chips from dropped toiletries.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
