Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Sink repair in Hadley Wood without replacing anything
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Our repair technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and people most frequently call us about an antique basin with chips and cracks starting at the waste.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin often 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. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid abrasive pads
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Hadley Wood: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How much does sink repair cost in Hadley Wood?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Hadley Wood included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you cover Hadley Wood?
We do. We send a technician to Hadley Wood for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
