Trusted sink repair in Cop Street

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No need to remove anything
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Sink repair in Cop Street without replacing anything

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. If you are dealing with damage to a basin in a vanity unit and a period basin that needs restoring, we can usually put it right.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Cop Street questions

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will it make 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?

Surface cracks can usually be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Widespread crazing

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Signs you need sink repair in Cop Street

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Chips around the rim
  • Cracks starting at the waste

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
