Sink repair in Chiselborough, done in place
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is typically repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about a period basin that needs restoring and a chipped vanity basin.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Your questions about sink repair in Chiselborough
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TA14 postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Usually, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Repairing versus replacing in Chiselborough
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
