Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us

When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Your questions about sink repair in Cae'r Lan
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do you cover Cae'r Lan?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Cae'r Lan from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the whole basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job.
