DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
Sink repair in Cottingley, done in place
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We’re frequently asked to fix damage to a basin in a vanity unit and knocks from hair straighteners, in enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins.

FAQs for Cottingley
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How much does sink repair cost in Cottingley?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What areas do you cover?
All of Leeds, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, 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 finish the repair to the same sheen.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Repair chips before they stain
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
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.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
