How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BS40 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Use gentle cleaners

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Widespread crazing

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repair or replace in Butcombe?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
