Sink repair at your home in Wadeford
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Whether it’s a period basin that needs restoring and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, we can normally put it right, on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
FAQs for Wadeford

Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Repairing versus replacing in Wadeford
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What we’re called out for in Wadeford
