Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything

Read our prices page.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

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

Materials we repair

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

Questions from Newark-on-Trent

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Are there extra charges for Newark-on-Trent?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Newark-on-Trent?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your NG24 postcode.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you cover the entire of Nottinghamshire?

The entire UK, including all of Nottinghamshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

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

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a couple of hours for most chips.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
