Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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.

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  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 tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

For a price in Gungrog, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
