Markby questions
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work in Markby?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Markby. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How much does sink repair cost in Markby?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LN13 postcode.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Common problems we fix in Markby
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Crazing in the glaze
Comparing quotes
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Markby. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins

How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare

- The type of damage
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
For a price in Markby, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
