What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Landlord and trade work in Ashby by Partney
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Questions from Ashby by Partney
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 is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
