About our sink repair in Scholes
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and people most often call us about a crack near the taps and chips around the rim.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Common problems we fix in Scholes
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Crazing in the glaze
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Knocks from hair straighteners

What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Scholes: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Scholes is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Repairing versus replacing in Scholes
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
