Sink Repair in Wyaston
Chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Wyaston. Send photos for a free, fixed quote.
- Repairs from £95
- An antique basin with chips
- Crazing in the glaze
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Sink repair in Wyaston without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are an antique basin with chips and chips on the rim or front edge.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
How the visit works
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 clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
