Your questions about sink repair in Kettlewell
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Often. Send us photos and we will tell you.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Don’t overtighten taps
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can

What affects the price in Kettlewell
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
