Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Older homes around Salford may have sizes and fittings that new pieces do not match. Repairing avoids those problems.
Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
What affects the price in Salford
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Salford. The price comes down to:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
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.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
