Repairs by material
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.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
How we handle sink repair in Summer Hill
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. Common call-outs are for a period basin that needs restoring and a crack near the taps, on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Common questions in Summer Hill
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Do you cover Summer Hill?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Summer Hill. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Summer Hill?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your NP19 postcode.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
When to call us in Summer Hill
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Related advice
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
