Sink repair at your home in Swinhope
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Common call-outs are for an original basin worth saving and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Swinhope, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
What we are called out for in Swinhope
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chips around the rim
- A crazed, tired basin
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips on a built-in basin
What your quote should include
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Same prices wherever you are
See our prices page.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
Swinhope questions
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you cover Swinhope?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Swinhope for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
