Sink repair at your home in Sheffield
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. We work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and common reasons people get in touch are broken corners and edges and stains and worn glaze.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, 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
