Your questions about sink repair in South Town
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Use gentle cleaners
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Plumbing leaks
- Widespread crazing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Common problems we fix in South Town
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
People typically call us after spotting one of these:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips around the rim
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Comparing quotes
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who will actually do the work
- How the colour is matched
- What prep work is covered
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for South Town. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a 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
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
