Sink repair in Bacup, done in place
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We are often asked to fix an original basin worth saving and chips from dropped toiletries, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Bacup. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
For landlords and businesses
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.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Bacup: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Bacup?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your OL13 postcode.

Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

What we are called out for in Bacup
Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Chips around the rim
- A crack near the taps

What we do, step by step

- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
