Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

How much does sink repair cost in Creswell?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your S80 postcode.

Can you quote from photos?

Do you come to Creswell?

We do. We send a technician to Creswell for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Creswell

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Creswell

For anyone letting property in or around Creswell, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
