How we handle sink repair in Lee Gate
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Typical jobs include chips around the rim and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, in vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Common questions in Lee Gate
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do you cover Lee Gate?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Lee Gate from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
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
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Lee Gate
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What we are called out for in Lee Gate
Fine crazing in the glaze is normally down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A chipped basin edge
- Chips on a built-in basin
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How to look after the finish
- What protection goes down before work starts
- If travel is included in the price
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Repair or replace in Lee Gate?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
