The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Sink repair in Little London, done in place
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are knocks from hair straighteners and chips on a built-in basin.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Little London
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little London use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Do not overtighten taps
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
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.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole basin
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
