What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- 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 material, if you know it
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Llanfechain: your questions answered
Do you cover Llanfechain?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Llanfechain and the rest of Powys. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Powys.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
