Sink repair at your home in Newnham
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We are frequently asked to fix damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a period basin that needs restoring, on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Newnham, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Common questions in Newnham
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you cover Newnham?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Newnham for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Kent. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Should you replace it?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
