Sink repair in City of London, 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. Whether it’s a crazed, tired basin and chips around the rim, we can usually put it right, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Common questions in City of London
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
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.
How much does sink repair cost in City of London?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Normally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Signs you need sink repair in City of London
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A chipped vanity basin
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- An original basin worth saving

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What affects the price in City of London
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
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.

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
