FAQs for Lingards Wood
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you cover Lingards Wood?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Lingards Wood from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. 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 them sympathetically.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use mild cleaners only
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
