We regularly repair enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are a period basin that needs restoring and cracks starting at the waste.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Workhouse Green
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole basin
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
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 quote.
Repairing versus replacing in Workhouse Green
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- Everything repaired in place
- Colour-matched on site
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Common problems we fix in Workhouse Green
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Crazing in the glaze
- An original basin worth saving
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- A chipped basin edge
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
