Trusted sink repair in Greatworth

Sink repair in Greatworth without replacing anything

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are chips on a built-in basin and crazing in the glaze.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Greatworth use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
