Anchorsholme questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Lancashire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Anchorsholme. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.

- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit

- Let us know about parking or access

Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Repair chips before they stain
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
