Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One visit for most repairs

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Plumbing leaks
- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair

Your questions about sink repair in Appley Bridge
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Appley Bridge. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair chips before they stain
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
