DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Your questions about sink repair in New Ellerby
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you cover New Ellerby?
We do. We send a technician to New Ellerby for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

About sink & basin repair
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in New Ellerby use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
