How we handle sink repair in Wandsworth

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are damage to a basin in a vanity unit and a chipped basin edge.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

When to call us in Wandsworth

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A chipped basin edge
  • An original basin worth saving

Questions to ask before you book

  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SW18 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Questions from Wandsworth

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Wandsworth and the rest of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do you work in Wandsworth?

We do. Technicians travel to Wandsworth from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Widespread crazing

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
