Sink repair in Manningford Abbots without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are knocks from hair straighteners and cracks around the tap holes or waste.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Landlord and trade work in Manningford Abbots
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Manningford Abbots as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Manningford Abbots, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Do not overtighten taps
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
