How we handle sink repair in Kintbury
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We’re often asked to fix knocks from hair straighteners and a period basin that needs restoring, in antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Common questions in Kintbury
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Normally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
