Sink repair near Lea Green

When to call us in Lea Green

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

Our hiring checklist

Sink repair in Lea Green, done in place

We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are fine cracks across the glaze and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Before and after: a chip on the front of a bathroom basin repaired

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why Lea Green clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Take a look at our pricing.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
