DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

  • Colour-matched on site

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Plumbing leaks

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Knypersley

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
