Your questions about sink repair in Caenby Corner
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Lincolnshire.

Do you need sink repair in Caenby Corner?
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
Comparing quotes
- How the room is protected while they work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- When it can be used again
What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
