Sink repair at your home in Keighley

Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the rim or front edge and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Keighley use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically 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 liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a 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. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Everything repaired in place
- One price list for the whole UK

Questions from Keighley
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Keighley. Prices do not change with location.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
- Plumbing leaks
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique

Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
