Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
About our sink repair in Standish
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We’re frequently asked to fix fine cracks across the glaze and an antique basin with chips, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What affects the price in Standish
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Standish. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
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. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
