Sink repair at your home in Emscote
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. Common call-outs are for a crazed, tired basin and a chipped basin edge, on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Can I fix it myself?
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 photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Widespread crazing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
- Avoid abrasive pads
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
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.
Common questions in Emscote
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
