Sink Repair for Watermead homes
Problem with your basin in Watermead? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on a built-in basin
- A period basin that needs restoring
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Sink repair in Watermead without replacing anything
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Our technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are an original basin worth saving and a chipped vanity basin.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
FAQs for Watermead
Is it safe with children and pets around?

Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
