The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
How we handle sink repair in Woodlands
From cloakroom basins to period pieces, whatever they’re made of. Taps and wastes stay connected. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped basin edge and a crack near the taps.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

FAQs for Woodlands
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you hold any accreditations?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Do you come to Woodlands?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Woodlands for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Repairing versus replacing in Woodlands
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
