When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Plumbing leaks
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
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.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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.
Do you need sink repair in Woodham Mortimer?
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Fine cracks across the glaze

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
