Sink Repair in Warfleet
Chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins in Warfleet, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Fine cracks across the glaze

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Get chips repaired early
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Sink repair at your home in Warfleet
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped basin edge and knocks from hair straighteners.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Your questions about sink repair in Warfleet
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Warfleet.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Repairing versus replacing in Warfleet

The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips. We leave the room clean.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What else we do in Warfleet
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
