Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Little Harwood. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Widespread crazing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What else we do in Little Harwood
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Little Harwood: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Do you cover the whole of Blackburn with Darwen?
We cover the whole UK, including Little Harwood and the rest of Blackburn with Darwen. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BB1 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
