Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How it works
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 job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For anyone letting property in or around Netherthong, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Netherthong questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you cover the whole of Kirklees?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Netherthong. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How much does sink repair cost in Netherthong?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
