FAQs for Leven
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are there extra charges for Leven?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
How we handle sink repair in Leven
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Typical jobs include crazing in the glaze and knocks from hair straighteners, on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Leven. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair chips before they stain
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
