Sink repair in South Burlingham, done in place
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins

Common questions in South Burlingham
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
When to call us in South Burlingham
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- An original basin worth saving
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A crack near the taps
Comparing quotes
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What aftercare is recommended
- Who will actually do the work
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
