Sink repair across Cumbria: what to expect

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about chips on a built-in basin and fine cracks across the glaze.

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

We clean the basin and check the damage.
Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
The finish is matched to the glaze.
The repair is polished so it blends in.
You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

What you will pay

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Landlord and trade work in Cumbria

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

A basin cracked through and leaking
A basin that moves on its brackets
Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

Keep straighteners away from the basin
Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
