Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Questions from New Moston
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.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including New Moston and the rest of Greater Manchester. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- One picture of the whole basin
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
What we’re called out for in New Moston
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A crack near the taps
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How to look after the finish
- How soon you can use it again
- Who will actually do the work
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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 usually cheaper.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job.
