Sink Repair for Leaden Roding homes
Our technicians come to Leaden Roding for chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Fine cracks across the glaze

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Sink repair in Leaden Roding, done in place
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about cracks starting at the waste and a crazed, tired basin.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How much does sink repair cost in Leaden Roding?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Leaden Roding

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
