How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

FAQs for Bagthorpe

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Usually, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

What areas do you cover?

All of Nottinghamshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you come to Bagthorpe?

We do. Technicians travel to Bagthorpe from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Repairing versus replacing in Bagthorpe

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When we would advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

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

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a couple of hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
