How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Repairing versus replacing in Haconby

Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Haconby: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

Do you come to Haconby?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Haconby from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are there extra charges for Haconby?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

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.

  • A chipped basin edge
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
