Sink Repair for Snitton homes
Fixed-price sink repair in Snitton and the surrounding area, usually in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped vanity basin
- A crazed, tired basin
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
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.
About our sink repair in Snitton
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about cracks around the tap holes or waste and an antique basin with chips.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What else we do in Snitton
What affects the price in Snitton
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
There are no surprise 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.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common questions in Snitton
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Shropshire.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Snitton?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Snitton
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How the visit works
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. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched 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
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Snitton
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
