Sink repair at your home in Upper Street

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We work on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about a chipped basin edge and crazing in the glaze.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What affects the price in Upper Street

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin

If you are in Upper Street and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Signs you need sink repair in Upper Street

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Chips around the rim

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about sink repair in Upper Street

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Are there extra charges for Upper Street?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
