Sink repair in Frankby, done in place
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. If you’re dealing with fine cracks across the glaze and chips on the rim or front edge, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What else we do in Frankby
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Frankby, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Frankby as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. 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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use mild cleaners only
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Frankby.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
