Trusted sink repair in Heart's Delight

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

About our sink repair in Heart's Delight

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. Our repair technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are an original basin worth saving and chips on the rim or front edge.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Heart's Delight and across Kent.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can

Should you replace it?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Heart's Delight

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Heart's Delight: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Often. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Widespread crazing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
