Sink repair at your home in Grimesthorpe
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped vanity basin and a period basin that needs restoring.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Grimesthorpe
If you manage property in Grimesthorpe, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Grimesthorpe questions
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Sheffield.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you cover Grimesthorpe?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Grimesthorpe and the rest of Sheffield. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the area is dry

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
