Sink & basin repair in Hardwick, Birmingham
We travel to Hardwick for chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- A crazed, tired basin
- A crack near the taps
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Do not 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 water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Sink repair in Hardwick, done in place
From cloakroom basins to period pieces, in ceramic, composite and enamel. There’s no plumbing to disconnect. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a crack near the taps.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
Most clients in Hardwick get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlord and trade work in Hardwick
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Birmingham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Hardwick questions
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Birmingham.
Do you cover the entire of Birmingham?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Do you need sink repair in Hardwick?
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A crazed, tired basin
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
