Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Sink repair in Newnham, done in place
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped basin edge and a chipped vanity basin.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

How it 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 by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newnham
For anyone letting property in or around Newnham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Signs you need sink repair in Newnham
Fine crazing in the glaze is normally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Chips on a built-in basin
- A period basin that needs restoring

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
FAQs for Newnham
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you come to Newnham?
We do. We send a technician to Newnham for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t overtighten taps
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Newnham. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
If you are in Newnham and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
