How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Midstocket. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Midstocket, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Repair chips before they stain
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. 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.
What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Common questions in Midstocket
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you cover Midstocket?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Midstocket from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Are there extra charges for Midstocket?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
