How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Letham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Plumbing leaks
- Through cracks that let water out
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
What happens on the day
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. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DD8 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
