Sink repair in Trafford Park, done in place
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are an antique basin with chips and chips around the rim.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Trafford Park and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
When to call us in Trafford Park
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips around the rim
- An original basin worth saving
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A chipped vanity basin
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Trafford Park. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
