Sink repair in Pitstone without replacing anything
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are knocks from hair straighteners and crazing in the glaze.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Should you replace it?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Pitstone. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

FAQs for Pitstone
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LU7 postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you come to Pitstone?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Pitstone and the rest of Central Bedfordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
