What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Aughton. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in Aughton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Sink repair in Aughton without replacing anything

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Aughton and across Lancashire.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins

Questions from Aughton

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Aughton included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Repair or replace in Aughton?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour-matched on site

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Repair chips before they stain

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
