Sink repair in Church Langton, done in place
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped toiletries and cracks around the tap holes or waste.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Church Langton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Church Langton
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your LE16 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should you replace it?

What your basin is made of matters
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.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
