Repairing versus replacing in Canewdon
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- One picture of the whole basin
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Questions from Canewdon
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job without visiting.
