DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we handle sink repair in Lanham Green
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Whether it’s chips around the rim and cracks starting at the waste, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Get chips repaired early
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Landlord and trade work in Lanham Green
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Lanham Green
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Same prices wherever you are

- Nothing taken out or refitted

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
