Sink repair in London without replacing anything

Where we can, we keep the maker’s mark on period basins. Chips and cracks are repaired with the basin in place, so you don’t need a plumber. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about hairline cracks and crazing and broken corners and edges.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London. Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Repair or replace in London?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What happens on the day

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 few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

FAQs for London

How much does sink repair cost in London?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.

Will I see the repair?

The colour is mixed on the day to match your basin, and the repair is polished to blend in.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What guarantee do I get?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When can I use it again after the repair?

Usually the same day or the next, depending on what we’ve done. We’ll tell you the curing time before we leave.

Can a cracked basin be repaired?

Often, yes, particularly on the rim. A crack that leaks may need the basin replacing.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes, usually. The technician needs access to the room while we work, and we’ll agree a time with you.

When to call us in London

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks often start around the taps and waste, where fittings press on the ceramic.

People usually call us after spotting something like this:

  • Stains and worn glaze
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Hairline cracks and crazing
  • Broken corners and edges

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Aftercare advice
  • What preparation is included

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
