Sink & basin repair in Lilley, Luton
Damaged basin in Lilley? We put it right where it is, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A crazed, tired basin
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Do not overtighten taps
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What else we do in Lilley
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Lilley
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Lilley. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
