Sink repair at your home in Harper Green
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is usually repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We are often asked to fix crazing in the glaze and a chipped basin edge, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Harper Green questions
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How much does sink repair cost in Harper Green?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you cover the whole of Bolton?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
