About our sink repair in Sutton
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is generally repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Common call-outs are for damage to a basin in a vanity unit and cracks starting at the waste, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Something in shot to show the size
If you’re in Sutton and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
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.

Sutton: your questions answered
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Sutton included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Do you cover Sutton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Sutton. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Sutton
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Sutton
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
