Sink repair in Cheshunt without replacing anything
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is usually repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a chipped vanity basin.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hertfordshire.

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Cheshunt
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Get chips repaired early
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Should you replace it?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What affects the price in Cheshunt

- Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
