Sink repair in Aspley without replacing anything
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Typical jobs include a crack near the taps and a chipped vanity basin, on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Aspley. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

- The damage is cleaned and prepared.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Questions from Aspley
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.
