Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How it works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Your questions about sink repair in New Parks
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
When to call us in New Parks
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Chips around the rim
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A crack near the taps
Comparing quotes
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
- What prep work is covered
- Who turns up on the day
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t overtighten taps
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What affects the price in New Parks
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for New Parks. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
