Sink repair at your home in Iwade

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.

- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
FAQs for Iwade
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Are there extra charges for Iwade?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What else we do in Iwade
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Iwade
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
