How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

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.

When to call us in Castle Green

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if they find more damage

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Castle Green: your questions answered

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Castle Green. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
