Sink repair in Grangetown, done in place
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We’re often asked to fix an original basin worth saving and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, across vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Should you replace it?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

FAQs for Grangetown
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can

What else we do in Grangetown
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
