Landlords, agents and businesses in Menethorpe
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Sink repair in Menethorpe, done in place
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are knocks from hair straighteners and cracks starting at the waste.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Questions from Menethorpe
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you work in Menethorpe?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Menethorpe. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Advice
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Should you replace it?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Work done at your home or business
- A year’s guarantee on all work

What else we do in Menethorpe
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Menethorpe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Menethorpe, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Do not overtighten taps
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. 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 water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
