Sink repair in East Farndon without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped basin edge and knocks from hair straighteners.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When we would advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in East Farndon
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Do not overtighten taps
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Your questions about sink repair in East Farndon
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes East Farndon. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- 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
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Landlord and trade work in East Farndon
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
