Sink repair at your home in Southey Green
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Whether it’s cracks starting at the waste and a chipped basin edge, we can normally put it right, on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and enamelled basins alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Advice
Your questions about sink repair in Southey Green
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Southey Green?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you come to Southey Green?
We do. Technicians travel to Southey Green from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaks from the fittings
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
