FAQs for Wharfe
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Usually, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Sink repair at your home in Wharfe
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about cracks around the tap holes or waste and a crazed, tired basin.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Wharfe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Signs you need sink repair in Wharfe
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A crack near the taps
- An original basin worth saving
- A crazed, tired basin
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How to look after the finish
- What prep work is covered
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Wharfe
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
