- Repairs from £95
- A crack near the taps
- Chips around the rim
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Sink repair in Gospel Oak without replacing anything
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. Our technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about chips on the rim or front edge and knocks from hair straighteners.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gospel Oak as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
