How we handle sink repair in Salph End
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We are often asked to fix a crazed, tired basin and knocks from hair straighteners, across antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
