Sink repair in Wattisfield without replacing anything

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped toiletries and chips on a built-in basin, across Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Chipped basin edge, before and after repair

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

When to call us in Wattisfield

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A chipped basin edge

10 questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Wattisfield

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Typically, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Landlord and trade work in Wattisfield

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repair or replace in Wattisfield?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Wattisfield. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

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

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
