What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Signs you need sink repair in Chandler's Cross

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.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips on the rim or front edge

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One visit for most repairs

See our full price list.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Landlord and trade work in Chandler's Cross

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chandler's Cross use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Questions from Chandler's Cross

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

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.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your WD3 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
