Sink repair at your home in Kentrigg
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 cracks starting at the waste and knocks from hair straighteners, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Have new chips repaired quickly
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

- A period basin that needs restoring

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
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.
Your questions about sink repair in Kentrigg
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Cumbria. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
What affects the price in Kentrigg
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Kentrigg. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you’re in Kentrigg and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
