Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Sink repair in Samlesbury Bottoms without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Our technicians work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips on a built-in basin and a crack near the taps.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Samlesbury Bottoms, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
