FAQs for Blaby
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LE8 postcode.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
Sink repair at your home in Blaby
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. If you’re dealing with a chipped vanity basin and a crack near the taps, we can generally put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

What affects the price in Blaby
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Blaby. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Most clients in Blaby get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Repair or replace in Blaby?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
