Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Get chips repaired early

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Signs you need sink repair in North Town

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A crack near the taps
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A chipped basin edge

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the colour is matched

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often 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.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Questions from North Town

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can I fix it myself?

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 are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaks from the fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
