Sink Repair for Pickup Bank homes

- Repairs from £95
- Chips from dropped toiletries

How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

FAQs for Pickup Bank
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Pickup Bank included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
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.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Landlord and trade work in Pickup Bank
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pickup Bank as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
