What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
About our sink repair in Westleigh
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. We’re often asked to fix cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips on a built-in basin, in enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Westleigh
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Westleigh as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Questions from Westleigh
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you work in Westleigh?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Westleigh. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Generally, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

When to call us in Westleigh
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A chipped basin edge
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A crazed, tired basin
- A period basin that needs restoring
What to look for in a quote
- Who turns up on the day
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What affects the price in Westleigh
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Westleigh
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
Can I fix it myself?
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
