Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- No need to remove anything
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- One-year guarantee on every repair

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do you need sink repair in Ashby?
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips around the rim
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Cracks starting at the waste
Before booking anyone
- How to look after the finish
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the room is protected while they work
- How soon you can use it again
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
