Sink & basin repair in Waltham Cross, Hertfordshire
We travel to Waltham Cross for chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Crazing in the glaze
- Chips on the rim or front edge
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How we handle sink repair in Waltham Cross
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. If you are dealing with damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, we can typically put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Waltham Cross questions
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Hertfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Waltham Cross use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

What affects the price in Waltham Cross
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Waltham Cross. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We do not add 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 to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
