Sink repair at your home in Greet
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and people most often call us about a chipped basin edge and an original basin worth saving.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Greet customers choose us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use gentle cleaners
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Greet. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most clients in Greet get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common questions in Greet
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
