Sink repair at your home in Slindon Common
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. If you’re dealing with chips on the rim or front edge and a crazed, tired basin, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Advice
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For a price in Slindon Common, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
FAQs for Slindon Common
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Slindon Common and the rest of West Sussex. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Slindon Common?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in West Sussex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When to call us in Slindon Common
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A chipped basin edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips on a built-in basin
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if they find more damage
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
