Why repair rather than replace?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lufton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Lufton: your questions answered

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Often. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lufton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  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.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price
