What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Sink repair in Halton Green, done in place

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Whether it’s cracks around the tap holes or waste and chips from dropped toiletries, we can help, on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Halton Green and across Lancashire.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Signs you need sink repair in Halton Green

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Chips around the rim
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A crack near the taps

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

Advice

Halton Green questions

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can tenants book a repair?

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.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Halton Green?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you cover the entire of Lancashire?

The entire UK, including all of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Enamelled basins

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
