How we handle sink repair in Cackleshaw
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Typical jobs include a chipped basin edge and an antique basin with chips, on Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Cackleshaw. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

Can you quote from pictures?

Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
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.
What we’re called out for in Cackleshaw
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Crazing in the glaze
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Before you book anyone
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- If travel is included in the price
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. 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.
