Problem with your basin in Woodcote? We put it right where it is, match it on site and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.
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.
How we handle sink repair in Woodcote
We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. If you’re dealing with a period basin that needs restoring and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can help.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins

Woodcote questions
Are there extra charges for Woodcote?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you come to Woodcote?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Woodcote and the rest of Greater London. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use gentle cleaners
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
