Sink repair at your home in Kimbolton
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped basin edge and fine cracks across the glaze.
Rural addresses like Kimbolton just need a little planning, and we will plan the visit around it.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result. Somewhere like Kimbolton needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. Everything for the sink repair comes with us in one trip.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.

Kimbolton: your questions answered
Can you repair basins at a school or business in Kimbolton?
Yes, commercial work is part of what we do. Send pictures and details of the building.
Will you travel to Kimbolton?
Of course; we work in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking when you book.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
If you’re in Kimbolton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
