Sink & basin repair in Hurstwood, Lancashire
Fixed-price sink repair in Hurstwood and the surrounding area, normally in one visit.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped basin edge
- An original basin worth saving
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Sink repair at your home in Hurstwood
Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Whether it’s a period basin that needs restoring and a chipped basin edge, we can typically put it right, on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins alike.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hurstwood as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
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.
Hurstwood: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BB10 postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Repairing versus replacing in Hurstwood
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded 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 earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice
When to call us in Hurstwood
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What protection goes down before work starts
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
