DIY repairs versus a professional job
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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
How we handle sink repair in Croydon
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Common call-outs are for chips on a built-in basin and crazing in the glaze, across Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Landlord and trade work in Croydon
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Should you replace it?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- Same prices wherever you are
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colour-matched on site
See our prices page.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Croydon. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
