Sink repair at your home in King Cross

We match the glaze as well as the colour. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We’re frequently asked to fix chips around the rim and crazing in the glaze, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in King Cross

  • Antique & period basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Should you replace it?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One price list for the entire UK

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

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. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 frequently lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including King Cross. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
