How we handle sink repair in Charlton
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are a period basin that needs restoring and chips on the rim or front edge.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Do not overtighten taps
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What affects the price in Charlton
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Charlton
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Charlton questions
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Typically, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
