How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Lye Green. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lye Green. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

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

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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lye Green

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lye Green use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Lye Green

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Lye Green questions

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
