Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

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

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Repair chips before they stain

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often 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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Langley. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
