Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. 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.

Landlord and trade work in Rusholme
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What we are called out for in Rusholme
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Common reasons people in Rusholme contact us are:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- An antique basin with chips
- Crazing in the glaze
- A chipped vanity basin

Common questions in Rusholme
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you cover the whole of Greater Manchester?
Everywhere in the UK, Rusholme included. Travel is included in the price.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Rusholme?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Rusholme. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire basin
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your M14 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Plumbing leaks
- Widespread crazing
- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Do not overtighten taps
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
