Sink repair in Adlington without replacing anything
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We regularly repair antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are an antique basin with chips and chips on the rim or front edge.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Do you need sink repair in Adlington?
Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Chips around the rim
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How long it needs to cure
Common questions in Adlington
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?
We cover the entire UK, including Adlington and the rest of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Do you work in Adlington?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Adlington from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
Repairing versus replacing in Adlington

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
