How it works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- One visit for most repairs
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No extra charge for your area

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
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.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Widespread crazing
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Common questions in Little Altcar
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you cover Little Altcar?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Little Altcar from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
