Well-known places in the area include Lancaster Castle (4 miles north-east) and Royal Lancaster Infirmary (3.7 miles north-east).
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid abrasive pads
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Glasson questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Frequently. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What affects the price in Glasson
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Glasson. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes

What we cannot put right

- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin cracked through and leaking

Repairing versus replacing in Glasson
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the area is dry
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
