Common questions in Scronkey
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Sink repair at your home in Scronkey
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are cracks starting at the waste and a period basin that needs restoring.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lancashire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a basin frequently 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Scronkey. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Scronkey. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Scronkey

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- 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 usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the area is dry
