DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What affects the price in Bent Gate
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole basin

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Bent Gate questions
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you come to Bent Gate?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Bent Gate and the rest of Bury. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How much does sink repair cost in Bent Gate?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Bury.
Landlord and trade work in Bent Gate
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bent Gate use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
