How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Get chips repaired early
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Common questions in Farington
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repairing versus replacing in Farington
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
