Ladywell: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use gentle cleaners
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ladywell. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
