How we handle sink repair in Leyland
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Whether it’s chips on the rim or front edge and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, we can help, on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Plumbing leaks
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Leyland

Repair or replace: which is better?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Leyland: your questions answered
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Advice
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PR25 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
