Sink repair at your home in Eriswell
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. If you are dealing with cracks starting at the waste and a period basin that needs restoring, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

When to call us in Eriswell
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the colour is matched
- How your room will be protected
- If travel is included in the price
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.

Your questions about sink repair in Eriswell
How much does sink repair cost in Eriswell?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your IP27 postcode.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Typically, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Should you replace it?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Advice
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
