10 questions to ask before you book

Jacobs Well questions

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

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

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you cover Jacobs Well?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Jacobs Well from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Jacobs Well, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Jacobs Well?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Jacobs Well. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
