What affects the price in Cranbrook
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
About our sink repair in Cranbrook
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. Whether it’s a crack near the taps and knocks from hair straighteners, we can typically put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Cranbrook and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Cranbrook
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Cranbrook customers choose us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Colour-matched on site
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- A fixed quote before you book
See our pricing.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Cranbrook
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
Common problems we fix in Cranbrook
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A crazed, tired basin
Before booking anyone
- What prep work is covered
- How changes to the job are handled
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether they match the colour on site
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use mild cleaners only
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
