- Repairs from £95

What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
Sink repair in Hornton without replacing anything
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and an original basin worth saving, across enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What else we do in Hornton
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Common questions in Hornton
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hornton
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
