Landlord and trade work in Holywell Row
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holywell Row use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Sink repair in Holywell Row without replacing anything
From cloakroom basins to period pieces, in ceramic, composite and enamel. Taps and wastes stay connected. We are frequently asked to fix a chipped vanity basin and cracks starting at the waste, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.
Somewhere like Holywell Row, an older basin can be hard to match if replaced. Repairing it keeps the bathroom as it is.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead. Somewhere as small as Holywell Row, access is usually the main thing to plan. Once we are there, the sink repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, then guarantee it for a year.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Holywell Row
What we are called out for in Holywell Row
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A chipped basin edge
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A crazed, tired basin
- An antique basin with chips
If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as St John's Church, it may still have original basins or a period toilet, which are worth repairing rather than replacing.
Questions to ask before you book
- Who will actually do the work
- Aftercare advice
- What preparation is included
- How changes to the job are handled
Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. In an older home in a village like Holywell Row, replacing a basin can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.
