Sink repair in Lindow End, done in place
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. If you’re dealing with fine cracks across the glaze and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Repair or replace in Lindow End?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- 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.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Common problems we fix in Lindow End
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips around the rim
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A chipped vanity basin

What affects the price in Lindow End
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole basin
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
If you’re in Lindow End and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
