How we handle sink repair in Greenfield
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Typical jobs include crazing in the glaze and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, across enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Greenfield and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Greenfield
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
When to call us in Greenfield
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Chips around the rim
Questions to ask before you book
- If travel is included in the price
- Aftercare advice
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Most jobs done in one visit
- No need to remove anything
- One-year guarantee on every repair

What else we do in Greenfield
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Greenfield questions
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Greenfield and the rest of Oldham. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Do you work in Greenfield?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Greenfield from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Greenfield, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
