Sink repair in Peckham, done in place

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. Whether it’s chips on the rim or front edge and a crack near the taps, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Peckham, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Peckham. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Peckham, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How much does sink repair cost in Peckham?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
