Local sink repair for Langton Long Blandford: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Sink repair in Langton Long Blandford, done in place
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is normally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are a crazed, tired basin and cracks around the tap holes or waste.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the next day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Common problems we fix in Langton Long Blandford
Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
