About our sink repair in Tetney Lock
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We are often asked to fix damage to a basin in a vanity unit and cracks starting at the waste, on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tetney Lock
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.
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.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
