How we handle sink repair in Knotty Green
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is normally repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are a period basin that needs restoring and fine cracks across the glaze.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your HP9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Knotty Green questions
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you cover the entire of Buckinghamshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Knotty Green included. Travel is included in the price.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Knotty Green

What we are called out for in Knotty Green
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A chipped basin edge
- Crazing in the glaze
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A period basin that needs restoring
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How long it needs to cure
- Who will actually do the work
- How the room is protected while they work
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Related advice
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Buckinghamshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
