Sink repair across Long Lee and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Repairs from £95
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A chipped vanity basin
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
About our sink repair in Long Lee
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about knocks from hair straighteners and chips on a built-in basin.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Long Lee

Repair or replace: which is better?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Colour-matched on site

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Questions from Long Lee
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Generally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Do you cover Long Lee?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Long Lee and the rest of Bradford. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Long Lee?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BD21 postcode.
How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Make sure the area is dry
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
