Sink repair in Cleadon, done in place
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is normally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Whether it’s an antique basin with chips and a chipped basin edge, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cleadon
For anyone letting property in or around Cleadon, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Sunderland and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
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 you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95. 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.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Widespread crazing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Cleadon

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
