About our sink repair in Highwood
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. If you have a chipped vanity basin and knocks from hair straighteners, we can help, on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins alike.
Somewhere like Highwood, an older basin can be hard to match if replaced. Repairing it keeps the bathroom as it is.

Highwood: what to know about sink repair
In the older streets of Highwood, around landmarks like St. Mary's Catholic Church, period sanitaryware is worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Rented homes near Uttoxeter station (about 0.9 miles north) change hands frequently, and repairing basins between tenants is quicker than replacing them.
Highwood is about 1 mile south-east of Uttoxeter, in Staffordshire. Across the ST14 area, we carry out the work at your property. Our repair technicians cover all 512 towns and villages across Staffordshire, from the larger towns to small villages. You can also see our page for Birmingham, about 29 miles away.
Our technicians cover all of the ST14 postcode area for sink repair. Streets in the area include Cullamore Lane, Highwood Road and Toothill Road, all of which we cover. We also travel to Woodgate (1 mile east), Uttoxeter (1 mile north-west), The Heath (2 miles north), Marchington Woodlands (2 miles south-east) and Doveridge (2 miles north-east). We also work in nearby towns such as Stafford (12 miles south-west), Burton upon Trent (11 miles south-east), Cannock (14 miles south-west), Lichfield (14 miles south), Longton (13 miles north-west) and Rugeley (9 miles south).
Local landmarks in Highwood

Landlord and trade work in Highwood
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring all our kit in the van, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there. Somewhere as small as Highwood, access is typically the main thing to plan. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. In an older home in a village like Highwood, replacing a basin can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.
Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
