Sink Repair for Chase Cross homes
Sink repair across Chase Cross and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Repairs from £95
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips on a built-in basin
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
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. Early repair keeps it a small job.

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Chase Cross. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Chase Cross
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
