Sink & basin repair in Wigginton, Hertfordshire
Sink repair across Wigginton and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How we handle sink repair in Wigginton
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about a chipped vanity basin and an original basin worth saving.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Landlord and trade work in Wigginton
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive

- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
