Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, 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. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Sink repair in Sheldon Corner, done in place
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. If you’re dealing with a crack near the taps and an antique basin with chips, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Sheldon Corner and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Sheldon Corner
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Repairing versus replacing in Sheldon Corner
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
