Sink repair in Townsend, done in place
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are an antique basin with chips and chips from dropped toiletries.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Townsend as everywhere else we work.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
Do you need sink repair in Townsend?
Fine crazing in the glaze is normally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Knocks from hair straighteners
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the price covers travel
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What else we do in Townsend
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
