Sink repair in Longford without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Typical jobs include crazing in the glaze and cracks around the tap holes or waste, in antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Longford, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Widespread crazing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Questions from Longford
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Warrington. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
