How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most clients in Marton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Sink repair at your home in Marton

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. If you are dealing with chips from dropped toiletries and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

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

Should you replace it?

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Marton

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Common questions in Marton

Can tenants book a repair?

Which areas do you work in?

All of North Yorkshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
