Sink repair in Carroway Head without replacing anything
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair enamelled basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips from dropped toiletries.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Signs you need sink repair in Carroway Head
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Chips from dropped toiletries
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- What happens if they find more damage
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What affects the price in Carroway Head
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Carroway Head. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Carroway Head. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- 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, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Questions from Carroway Head
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you work in Carroway Head?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Carroway Head and the rest of Birmingham. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
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’ll tell you.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
