How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Kirklees questions
How much does sink repair cost in Kirklees?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you come to Kirklees?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Kirklees for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kirklees use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Kirklees
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully 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 typically cheaper.
When to call us in Kirklees
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A chipped basin edge
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- Aftercare advice
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
If you are in Kirklees and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
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 repairing them early keeps the job simple.
