FAQs for Folksworth
Are you accredited?

Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do you cover the whole of Cambridgeshire?
The whole UK, including all of Cambridgeshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise 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.
