About our sink repair in Park Town
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are chips around the rim and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.
Around Park Town, most of the basins we repair are in family bathrooms and cloakrooms. A chip is generally a short visit.
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.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Park Town. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Park Town. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Allow a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes. In a smaller place like Park Town, parking is rarely a problem. If you’re down a lane or a long drive, tell us when you book and we will plan for it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Get chips repaired early
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Clean with mild, non-abrasive 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 it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
