What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

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.

How we handle sink repair in Cadishead

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We are often asked to fix a chipped vanity basin and a crazed, tired basin, in vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Cadishead and across Salford.

Before and after: a damaged ceramic basin restored

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Cadishead: your questions answered

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Are there extra charges for Cadishead?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you come to Cadishead?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Cadishead and the rest of Salford. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Widespread crazing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use mild cleaners only

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Landlord and trade work in Cadishead

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Cadishead. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should you replace it?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
