Sink repair at your home in Heronden
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We work on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped basin edge and knocks from hair straighteners.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
What we’re called out for in Heronden
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- An antique basin with chips
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Chips around the rim
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
FAQs for Heronden
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Heronden.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Should you replace it?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
