When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
When to call us in Yate
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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips on the rim or front edge
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- How soon you can use it again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Questions from Yate
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Normally, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What else we do in Yate
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlord and trade work in Yate
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in South Gloucestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
If you manage property in Yate, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
