Sink repair at your home in Sunnymead
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is generally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Our technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people contact us are a crack near the taps and a chipped vanity basin.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What affects the price in Sunnymead
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Sunnymead. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Repair chips before they stain
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
