About our sink repair in Chapelthorpe
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We’re often asked to fix an antique basin with chips and a chipped vanity basin, on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlord and trade work in Chapelthorpe
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Get chips repaired early
- Use gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Chapelthorpe. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Signs you need sink repair in Chapelthorpe
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:
- Crazing in the glaze
- Chips around the rim
- An original basin worth saving
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if they find more damage
When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
Your questions about sink repair in Chapelthorpe
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
