DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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 usually the cheaper route.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Your questions about sink repair in Swarcliffe
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Swarcliffe.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do you need sink repair in Swarcliffe?
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your LS14 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What affects the price in Swarcliffe
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Swarcliffe. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Swarcliffe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Swarcliffe
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Swarcliffe as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
