When a repair isn’t the answer

- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Repair or replace in Allwood Green?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Advice
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole basin
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
