Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. We work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are a crack near the taps and crazing in the glaze.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

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 you will get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Heywood questions

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How much does sink repair cost in Heywood?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your BA13 postcode.

Will you remove the sink?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Repairing versus replacing in Heywood

A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

What affects the price in Heywood

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Heywood. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you are in Heywood and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
