About our sink repair in Sleights
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and chips on a built-in basin, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Sleights and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price.

FAQs for Sleights
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you’re in Sleights and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
Why us?
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No extra charge for your area
- Work done at your home or business
- Typically one visit, start to finish

What a repair can’t fix

- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
