Sink Repair for Hemyock homes
Chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins at your home in Hemyock, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Fine cracks across the glaze
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Get chips repaired early
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How we handle sink repair in Hemyock
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We’re often asked to fix an original basin worth saving and fine cracks across the glaze, in enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

FAQs for Hemyock
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Hemyock?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Are there extra charges for Hemyock?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Common problems we fix in Hemyock
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Common reasons people in Hemyock contact us are:
- Chips around the rim
- Crazing in the glaze
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Cracks starting at the waste

Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A fixed quote before you book

- We leave the room as we found it

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
