Repairing versus replacing in Jevington

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Take a look at our full price list.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BN26 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Questions from Jevington

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you work in Jevington?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Jevington and the rest of East Sussex. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Normally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Jevington

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
