Sink repair at your home in The Heath
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. Whether it’s crazing in the glaze and a chipped vanity basin, we can normally put it right, on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in The Heath as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
The Heath: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including The Heath and the rest of Hertfordshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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 will not last.
