Sink Repair for Canon's Town homes
Sink repair across Canon's Town and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A chipped vanity basin
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use mild cleaners only
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Repair chips before they stain
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
How we handle sink repair in Canon's Town
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are an original basin worth saving and chips from dropped toiletries.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit

Your questions about sink repair in Canon's Town
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Canon's Town

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
