Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Dendron, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How we handle sink repair in Dendron
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair enamelled basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and fine cracks across the glaze.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cumbria and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Should you replace it?
