FAQs for Becontree
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your RM9 postcode.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you work in Becontree?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Becontree for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Becontree. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Should you replace it?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Landlord and trade work in Becontree
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What your basin is made of matters
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 often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
