How we handle sink repair in Cannon's Green
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Common call-outs are for a crack near the taps and a chipped vanity basin, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For anyone letting property in or around Cannon's Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
What affects the price in Cannon's Green
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- 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.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price

Advice
Common questions in Cannon's Green

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
