What your basin is made of matters
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. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repairing versus replacing in Lane Ends
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lane Ends. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Questions from Lane Ends
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CW1 postcode.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
When to call us in Lane Ends
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Crazing in the glaze
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A period basin that needs restoring
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who turns up on the day
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How the colour is matched
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
