How we handle sink repair in Kendon
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Common call-outs are for an original basin worth saving and fine cracks across the glaze, in enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use gentle cleaners
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Kendon. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Repairing versus replacing in Kendon
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlord and trade work in Kendon
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Caerphilly and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
