Your questions about sink repair in Eccleston
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Eccleston

- A chipped vanity basin
- A chipped basin edge
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A crazed, tired basin
Before booking anyone

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
