Sink repair in Perry Common, done in place
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is generally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair antique & period basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the rim or front edge and an original basin worth saving.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Perry Common as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Perry Common, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Through cracks that let water out
- Widespread crazing
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins

Questions from Perry Common
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do you come to Perry Common?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Perry Common and the rest of Birmingham. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you need sink repair in Perry Common?
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- A chipped basin edge
- A chipped vanity basin
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the room is protected while they work
- If travel is included in the price
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
