Why repair rather than replace?
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. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Little Ireland

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a couple of hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater Manchester and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little Ireland as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What affects the price in Little Ireland
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Little Ireland. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Little Ireland. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
