Sink & basin repair in Newtown, Cheshire West and Chester
Fixed-price sink repair in Newtown and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped vanity basin
- Crazing in the glaze
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Sink repair in Newtown without replacing anything
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. If you’re dealing with crazing in the glaze and an antique basin with chips, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Your questions about sink repair in Newtown
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Typically, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One visit for most repairs
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
