How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Most clients in New Waltham 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.

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Repairing versus replacing in New Waltham

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Landlords, agents and businesses in New Waltham

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Avoid abrasive pads

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Common questions in New Waltham

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you cover New Waltham?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to New Waltham for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
