How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Far Bank. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Far Bank use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Signs you need sink repair in Far Bank
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Crazing in the glaze
- A period basin that needs restoring

Far Bank questions
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
How much does sink repair cost in Far Bank?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
