What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Great Broughton. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Sink repair at your home in Great Broughton
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We work on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped toiletries and a crack near the taps.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Your questions about sink repair in Great Broughton
Do you cover the entire of North Yorkshire?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Do you cover Great Broughton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Great Broughton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins

How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, 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.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
