Sink repair at your home in Limeside
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Whether it’s chips around the rim and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Limeside questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater Manchester.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Limeside and the rest of Greater Manchester. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Limeside?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit

- Any details about the material
If you’re in Limeside and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
