Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

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

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Denton questions

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Normally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Northamptonshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Plumbing leaks

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Denton

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

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Denton. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
