Sink repair in Langham without replacing anything
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. If you are dealing with cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips on a built-in basin, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Landlord and trade work in Langham
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Langham as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Langham: your questions answered
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Typically, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Langham included. Travel is included in the price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
