The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How we handle sink repair in Shepley
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. We are frequently asked to fix a crack near the taps and crazing in the glaze, across antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Signs you need sink repair in Shepley
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A chipped vanity basin
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Chips around the rim
- Knocks from hair straighteners
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Questions from Shepley
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Should you replace it?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
What you get with us
