About our sink repair in Lightwood Green
Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. We work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are chips around the rim and a period basin that needs restoring.
For a rural address like Lightwood Green, tell us about access and parking, and we will plan the visit around it.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

What else we do in Lightwood Green
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For anyone letting property in or around Lightwood Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy. For a rural address like Lightwood Green, we plan the journey in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the sink repair comes with us in one trip.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Older homes around Lightwood Green may have sizes and fittings that new pieces do not match. A repair keeps the original.
Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Common questions in Lightwood Green
Will you travel to Lightwood Green?
Of course; we work in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking when you book.
I let a flat near Wrenbury station. Can you help between tenants?
Yes, rental work is a big part of what we do, and a repair between tenants is generally quicker than replacing.

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
