Your questions about sink repair in Burton Overy
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Sink repair in Burton Overy, done in place
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. If you are dealing with a crazed, tired basin and chips on a built-in basin, we can help, on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What we are called out for in Burton Overy
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A chipped vanity basin
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A crack near the taps
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price covers travel
- When it can be used again
- Whether they match the colour on site
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Burton Overy. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Repairing versus replacing in Burton Overy
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
