Sink repair in Lord's Wood without replacing anything
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about crazing in the glaze and knocks from hair straighteners.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lord's Wood. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
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.
Questions from Lord's Wood
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
