Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
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.
Sink repair at your home in High Barnet
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We’re often asked to fix a crazed, tired basin and a chipped basin edge, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.
Homes in High Barnet frequently have compact bathrooms and cloakrooms, where a chipped basin is right in view. We repair it in place, without disconnecting anything.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in High Barnet as everywhere else we work.

Common problems we fix in High Barnet
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Crazing in the glaze
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- An original basin worth saving
- A chipped vanity basin
We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you care for a building such as Foulds School, toilets and washrooms can be repaired in place too.

Repair or replace in High Barnet?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. For a flat in High Barnet, replacement can also disturb neighbours below and need the building manager’s say-so. Repairing is much less disruptive.
Our sink repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
High Barnet questions
Is it worth repairing old basins in a period home in High Barnet?
Frequently, yes: original pieces are generally worth keeping. Photos let us tell you what we would recommend.
Can you fix basins in a rental near Hadley Wood station?
Yes, landlords and agents book us regularly, and a repair between tenants is typically quicker than replacing.
Do you cover High Barnet?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to High Barnet. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it. London visits like those in High Barnet start with parking: a visitor permit or a nearby bay makes the day run smoothly. The sink repair itself happens in the room, with nothing carried out.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
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.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
