Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Alderley Edge. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

If you’re in Alderley Edge and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Before and after: a chip on the front of a bathroom basin repaired

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together. In a smaller place like Alderley Edge, parking is rarely a problem. Mention a lane, gate or long drive when you book.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice

Do you need sink repair in Alderley Edge?

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Chips on the rim or front edge

If you let a flat or house near Alderley Edge station (in Alderley Edge itself), we repair basins between tenancies so it’s ready to let again quickly.

Before you book anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use mild cleaners only

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaks from the fittings

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

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Antique & period basins

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Should you replace it?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. In a smaller place like Alderley Edge, getting trades out for a full replacement can take time to arrange. A repair needs just one visit.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Alderley Edge. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One price list for the whole UK

Alderley Edge questions

Can you repair basins at a school or business in Alderley Edge?

Do you work in Alderley Edge?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Alderley Edge and the rest of Cheshire East. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
