Sink repair in Longden, done in place
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. If you are dealing with cracks around the tap holes or waste and a period basin that needs restoring, we can help, on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins alike.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

What else we do in Longden
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Plumbing leaks
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
