How we handle sink repair in Laffak
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Whether it’s a crazed, tired basin and a period basin that needs restoring, we can normally put it right, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins alike.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in St Helens.

How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For a price in Laffak, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Common questions in Laffak
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you cover Laffak?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Laffak from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Laffak and the rest of St Helens. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
What your basin is made of matters
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.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Laffak use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
