Your questions about sink repair in Great Asby
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Great Asby.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Store toiletries on a shelf
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, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Great Asby. The price comes down to:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What else we do in Great Asby
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
