Questions from Langbar
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
How much does sink repair cost in Langbar?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Get chips repaired early
- Use mild cleaners only
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Langbar. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Langbar get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Langbar
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- One price list for the whole UK
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- 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
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
