Advice
Your questions about sink repair in Little Hulton
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Repairing versus replacing in Little Hulton
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

When to call us in Little Hulton

- Crazing in the glaze

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
