Sink repair in Burlow, done in place
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Whether it’s damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and fine cracks across the glaze, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What else we do in Burlow
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Your questions about sink repair in Burlow
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Should you replace it?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Common problems we fix in Burlow
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Plumbing leaks
