Sink repair at your home in Lisson Grove
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. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and common reasons people contact us are an original basin worth saving and knocks from hair straighteners.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the following day.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
You don’t 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 reply with a fixed price.
Advice
What affects the price in Lisson Grove
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Repair or replace in Lisson Grove?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use gentle cleaners
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Common questions in Lisson Grove
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Common problems we fix in Lisson Grove
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
The things clients generally mention when they call include:
- A chipped basin edge
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
