Repair or replace in Duncton?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Take a look at our pricing.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most customers in Duncton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Common questions in Duncton

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Will you remove the sink?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Duncton?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your GU28 postcode.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Use gentle cleaners

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

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 quote, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A period basin that needs restoring

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
