Sink & basin repair in Hopwood, Rochdale
Chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins in Hopwood, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips from dropped toiletries
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Sink repair at your home in Hopwood
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is usually repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Whether it’s chips from dropped toiletries and a period basin that needs restoring, we can help, on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Repairing versus replacing in Hopwood
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Widespread crazing
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Hopwood
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Other services in Hopwood
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
When to call us in Hopwood
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A chipped vanity basin
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Fine cracks across the glaze

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Advice
Hopwood: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Do you cover Hopwood?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hopwood for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
