How we handle sink repair in Woodford
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins, and people most frequently call us about a crack near the taps and a chipped basin edge.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How it works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
What affects the price in Woodford
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace in Woodford?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Same prices wherever you are
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No need to remove anything
Read our pricing.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Do not overtighten taps
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Signs you need sink repair in Woodford
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

Woodford questions
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you come to Woodford?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Woodford. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Woodford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
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.
