DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
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.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

FAQs for Newthorpe
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What affects the price in Newthorpe
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the entire basin
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you are in Newthorpe and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When to call us in Newthorpe
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A chipped basin edge
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A chipped vanity basin
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Repairing versus replacing in Newthorpe
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Newthorpe. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Get chips repaired early
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
