About our sink repair in Alweston
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We’re often asked to fix knocks from hair straighteners and cracks around the tap holes or waste, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Alweston as everywhere else we work.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole basin
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most customers in Alweston get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Alweston: your questions answered
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Repair or replace in Alweston?
A new basin often means 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. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
