Sink repair in Woodshutts without replacing anything
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. We work on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped basin edge and an antique basin with chips.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Woodshutts
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Woodshutts as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use gentle cleaners
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin that moves on its brackets
