Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What else we do in Blackbrook
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid abrasive pads
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Repairing versus replacing in Blackbrook
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
