We don’t add 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.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Your questions about sink repair in Widnes
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are there extra charges for Widnes?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repairing versus replacing in Widnes
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaks from the fittings

What we work on
- Antique & period basins

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use mild cleaners only
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
