Do you need sink repair in Burrough End?
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A chipped vanity basin
- A period basin that needs restoring
Before you book anyone
- Who turns up on the day
- If travel is included in the price
- How your room will be protected
- What prep work is covered
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Get chips repaired early
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Burrough End. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repairing versus replacing in Burrough End
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

The process
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can

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.
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.
