Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Advice
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: 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.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in North Yorkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repairing versus replacing in Bridge Hewick
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Bridge Hewick. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
