When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaks from the fittings

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed 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, and the work is guaranteed.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Cheltenham
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Cheltenham questions
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Normally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
