FAQs for Glassonby
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Glassonby.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
