Sink repair in Willoughby Waterleys, done in place
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Common call-outs are for an original basin worth saving and fine cracks across the glaze, in enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Work for landlords and builders
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.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t overtighten taps
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What we are called out for in Willoughby Waterleys

- Knocks from hair straighteners
