Trusted sink repair in Soho

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Sink repair in Soho, done in place

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is normally repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Typical jobs include chips around the rim and a crazed, tired basin, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Soho

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Vanity unit basins

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Do not overtighten taps

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Questions from Soho

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Do you cover the entire of Greater London?

We work UK-wide, so Soho is covered. Prices do not change with location.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Why repair rather than replace?

Why Soho clients choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour-matched on site

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
