Sink repair in Cradlehall, done in place
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is usually repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Typical jobs include a chipped vanity basin and a crack near the taps, on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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 typically cheaper.
Landlord and trade work in Cradlehall
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
