- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Sink repair in Clitheroe without replacing anything
We match the glaze as well as the colour. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our repair technicians work on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are a period basin that needs restoring and chips on a built-in basin.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clitheroe use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

What affects the price in Clitheroe
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire basin
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Common questions in Clitheroe
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Usually, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Clitheroe and the rest of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Get chips repaired early
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid abrasive pads
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Repair or replace in Clitheroe?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
