Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Do not overtighten taps
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
How we handle sink repair in Linfit
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and people most frequently call us about knocks from hair straighteners and a chipped basin edge.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

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
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Common questions in Linfit
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Landlord and trade work in Linfit
For anyone letting property in or around Linfit, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole basin
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Widespread crazing
- Through cracks that let water out
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
