About our sink repair in Shirrell Heath
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. Typical jobs include an original basin worth saving and a crack near the taps, in enamelled basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
Should you replace it?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is my repair covered?

Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Shirrell Heath. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
