Sink repair for Great Humby homes

How we price sink repair

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Great Humby

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from Great Humby

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Do you work in Great Humby?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Great Humby and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

If you manage property in Great Humby, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
