Sink repair at your home in Shropshire

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is usually repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people contact us are cracks starting at the waste and a chipped vanity basin.

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
The area is degreased and keyed.
We build up the filler and sand it flush.
We match the colour and the gloss.
We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Prices in Shropshire

Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Local landmarks in Shrewsbury

Around Shrewsbury, we work in homes near St Mary's Church, Shrewsbury High School and The Crown Inn and the streets around them. You will also find Wakeman School (under half a mile south) and Coleham Primary School (under half a mile south). There is a railway station in Shrewsbury itself: Shrewsbury station. A little further out are Clive House Museum (less than half a mile south-west) and Darwin Shopping Centre (within half a mile west). For a walk, there is Bomere Pool and Haughmond Hill.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Get chips repaired early
Avoid strong bleach and descalers

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

Access to the area
How many items we do on one visit
The colour and finish to match
What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

The material, if you know it
One sharp close-up of the damage
Where you are, by postcode
Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shropshire use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Questions from Shropshire

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Usually, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
