Sink repair in Forest Moor, done in place
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips on a built-in basin and chips around the rim.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Repairing versus replacing in Forest Moor
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Your questions about sink repair in Forest Moor
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
Will you remove the sink?

Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Forest Moor. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
