About our sink repair in Great Fencote
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our repair technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are a crazed, tired basin and chips on a built-in basin.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Great Fencote. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- One picture of the entire basin
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Fencote
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Common questions in Great Fencote
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you need sink repair in Great Fencote?
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A chipped basin edge
- A crack near the taps
Questions to ask before you book
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How changes to the job are handled
Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No extra charge for your area

When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
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.
