Sink repair in Lavernock without replacing anything
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Whether it’s a chipped basin edge and cracks starting at the waste, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job.
Signs you need sink repair in Lavernock
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- An original basin worth saving
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A crack near the taps
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Before you book anyone

- When it can be used again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the colour is matched
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave 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.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Questions from Lavernock
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Typically, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
What areas do you cover?
All of the Vale of Glamorgan, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why book with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One visit for most repairs

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lavernock
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
