Prices and what affects them

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Sink repair in Knightsbridge, done in place

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We are often asked to fix chips on the rim or front edge and fine cracks across the glaze, across vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Common questions in Knightsbridge

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Knightsbridge?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaks from the fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When to call us in Knightsbridge

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

Look out for these signs:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A crack near the taps

Comparing quotes

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How your room will be protected
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

Most clients in Knightsbridge get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
