What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Questions from High Blantyre
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you come to High Blantyre?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to High Blantyre. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole basin
- The material, if you know it
- 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: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
