How we handle sink repair in Limehouse
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are chips on a built-in basin and knocks from hair straighteners.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Landlord and trade work in Limehouse
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Limehouse. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Repair chips before they stain
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
