What affects the price in Ferryhill
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Ferryhill. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Ferryhill get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Your questions about sink repair in Ferryhill
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use gentle cleaners
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ferryhill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
