Sink repair at your home in Springfield
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Common call-outs are for knocks from hair straighteners and a chipped basin edge, across antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Birmingham.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Springfield. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Get a quote
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your B13 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t overtighten taps
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Why repair rather than replace?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Springfield

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, 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 damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
When to call us in Springfield
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Crazing in the glaze
- A crack near the taps
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Common questions in Springfield
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do you cover Springfield?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Springfield and the rest of Birmingham. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
