Sink repair in Wymering, done in place
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Whether it’s crazing in the glaze and a crack near the taps, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Your questions about sink repair in Wymering
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Landlord and trade work in Wymering
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
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.
Common problems we fix in Wymering
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Crazing in the glaze
- Chips on a built-in basin
- An original basin worth saving
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the price covers travel
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Widespread crazing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Wymering
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t overtighten taps
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Wymering, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
