What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Lower Whitley. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Lower Whitley, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lower Whitley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Whitley

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Lower Whitley: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
