Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed, with no obligation. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What else we do in New Farnley
Landlords, agents and businesses in New Farnley
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
If you manage property in New Farnley, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Replacement in New Farnley means trades, travel and waste removal, while a repair is a single visit.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Signs you need sink repair in New Farnley
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Crazing in the glaze
- Chips on a built-in basin
- A crack near the taps
- Knocks from hair straighteners
If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as St James Church, it may still have original basins or a period toilet, which are worth repairing rather than replacing.

What we do, step by step

Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days. In a village or hamlet like New Farnley, access can be the only tricky part. Once we’re there, the sink repair works exactly as anywhere else.

- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive

Advice
Questions from New Farnley
Can you restore the original basins in an older house in New Farnley?
In most cases: period pieces can be hard to match if replaced. Send pictures and we’ll advise.
Do you come out to small places like New Farnley?
Yes, we cover the whole UK, villages included.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
