- Repairs from £95
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Sink repair at your home in Woodhouse Hill
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We are frequently asked to fix cracks starting at the waste and chips on the rim or front edge, across antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use mild cleaners only
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
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.
Woodhouse Hill: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Are there extra charges for Woodhouse Hill?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
