Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Your questions about sink repair in High Melton
Do you work in High Melton?
We do. We send a technician to High Melton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Do you cover the whole of Doncaster?
We cover the whole UK, including High Melton and the rest of Doncaster. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Repair or replace in High Melton?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- One-year guarantee on every repair

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to High Melton. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You don’t 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 will reply with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
