About our sink repair in High Cross
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. If you’re dealing with damage to a basin in a vanity unit and an antique basin with chips, we can help.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire basin

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, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
High Cross: your questions answered
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
How much does sink repair cost in High Cross?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Repairing versus replacing in High Cross
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
