Your questions about sink repair in Newsham
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your PR3 postcode.
What areas do you cover?
All of Lancashire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Sink repair at your home in Newsham
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We work on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are an antique basin with chips and fine cracks across the glaze.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

What else we do in Newsham
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- 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 pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Newsham, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not overtighten taps
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaks from the fittings
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
Should you replace it?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
