About our sink repair in Dagenham Dock
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is normally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We’re frequently asked to fix chips from dropped toiletries and a chipped vanity basin, on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Your questions about sink repair in Dagenham Dock
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
