Before and after: a crack on the edge of a basin repaired

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

FAQs for Cheadle

Will you remove the sink?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

How soon can you come?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you work in Cheadle?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Cheadle. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For a price in Cheadle, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Landlord and trade work in Cheadle

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

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repairing versus replacing in Cheadle

Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
