Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
About our sink repair in Cosby
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We’re frequently asked to fix crazing in the glaze and chips on a built-in basin, across vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.
Landlord and trade work in Cosby
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cosby use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
If you’re in Cosby and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Cosby questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Do you cover Cosby?
We do. We send a technician to Cosby for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How much does sink repair cost in Cosby?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Repair or replace in Cosby?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Natural light rather than flash
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
