How we handle sink repair in Higher Walton
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are an antique basin with chips and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Repair chips before they stain
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why us?

What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Through cracks that let water out
- Widespread crazing
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Higher Walton questions
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- 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.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
