About our sink repair in Merridale
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are a crazed, tired basin and a period basin that needs restoring.

Merridale questions
Do you cover the whole of Wolverhampton?
All of Wolverhampton, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you come to Merridale?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Merridale. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Usually, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
How much does sink repair cost in Merridale?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Other local landmarks include The Gunmakers Arms (0.6 miles south), St. Edmund's Catholic School (0.5 miles north-west) and St Jude's Church of England Primary Academy (less than half a mile north).

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Merridale. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
