About our sink repair in New Mill
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is typically repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are crazing in the glaze and chips on a built-in basin.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

FAQs for New Mill
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including New Mill and the rest of Kirklees. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
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 will tell you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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 typically cheaper.
