Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cotton End. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Northamptonshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Cotton End questions
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you cover the entire of Northamptonshire?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Cotton End. Prices do not change with location.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Cotton End. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
What we’re called out for in Cotton End
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
Questions to ask before booking
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the colour is matched
- What aftercare is recommended

- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
