Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Garrowhill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Sink repair in Garrowhill without replacing anything
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is usually repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are a crack near the taps and fine cracks across the glaze.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace in Garrowhill?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For a price in Garrowhill, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Advice
Questions from Garrowhill
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
