Sink repair in Willingham without replacing anything
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are a period basin that needs restoring and knocks from hair straighteners.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Willingham. The price reflects:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 pictures.
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 won’t last.
Questions from Willingham
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you cover Willingham?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Willingham for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Landlord and trade work in Willingham
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. 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 finish the repair to the same sheen.
Should you replace it?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
