Repairing versus replacing in North Hertfordshire

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What else we do in North Hertfordshire
Common questions in North Hertfordshire
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
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.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
How much does sink repair cost in North Hertfordshire?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Related advice
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
