Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Work done at your home or business

See our prices page.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Common questions in Bedale

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in Bedale

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we’re called out for in Bedale

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A chipped basin edge
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
