How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Mossend

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

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  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

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the area is dry

Mossend: your questions answered

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is there a guarantee?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Common problems we fix in Mossend

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • A chipped basin edge
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

Comparing quotes

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

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

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
