Local sink repair for Maybush: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped basin edge
- A period basin that needs restoring
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Sink repair at your home in Maybush
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Our repair technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and an antique basin with chips.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Your questions about sink repair in Maybush
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Southampton.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Same prices wherever you are
- A fixed quote before you book

Landlord and trade work in Maybush
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- 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. Early repair keeps it a small job.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Related advice
When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What we’re called out for in Maybush
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Chips around the rim
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- An antique basin with chips
