Sink Repair for Swanmore homes
Problem with your basin in Swanmore? We put it right where it is, match it on site and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A crack near the taps
- Chips on a built-in basin
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Sink repair in Swanmore, done in place
From cloakroom basins to period pieces, in ceramic, composite and enamel. There is no plumbing to disconnect. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips from dropped toiletries and chips on the rim or front edge.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Questions from Swanmore
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
