How we handle sink repair in Hykeham
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. If you’re dealing with a period basin that needs restoring and knocks from hair straighteners, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Landlord and trade work in Hykeham
For anyone letting property in or around Hykeham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not overtighten taps
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
FAQs for Hykeham
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you cover the entire of Lincolnshire?
The whole UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Generally, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
