Do you need sink repair in Broughton?
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Clients generally contact us about:
- Chips around the rim
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
Questions to ask before booking
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why Broughton customers choose us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Rooms protected and left tidy

- Fixed prices from your photos

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Questions from Broughton
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Broughton.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
