About our sink repair in Walthew Green
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are cracks around the tap holes or waste and an original basin worth saving.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Walthew Green and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What affects the price in Walthew Green
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Walthew Green, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Walthew Green, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

When a repair isn’t the answer

- Leaks from the fittings

When to call us in Walthew Green
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Crazing in the glaze
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
