How we handle sink repair in Whitelees
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We are frequently asked to fix chips from dropped toiletries and an antique basin with chips, on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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 pictures.

Questions from Whitelees
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
