Sink & basin repair in Intake, Doncaster
Sink repair in Intake without the cost of replacing. Send us photos for a fixed quote, then book a visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Cracks starting at the waste
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
A quick wipe after use helps, 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Intake, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Crazing in the glaze
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A period basin that needs restoring

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair

- Vanity unit basins
