Sink repair at your home in Eppleworth
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and people most often call us about knocks from hair straighteners and crazing in the glaze.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Eppleworth as everywhere else we work.

Common questions in Eppleworth
Do you cover Eppleworth?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Eppleworth from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Normally, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Repair chips before they stain
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
