Sink Repair in Erriottwood
Chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins for homes and businesses in Erriottwood and across Kent. Send photos for a free, fixed quote.
- Repairs from £95
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips from dropped toiletries
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Sink repair at your home in Erriottwood
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. Typical jobs include chips from dropped toiletries and chips around the rim, in enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
Landlords, agents and businesses in Erriottwood
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repairing versus replacing in Erriottwood
A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can

FAQs for Erriottwood
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Kent.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
