Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

What affects the price in Nova Scotia

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Nova Scotia. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Nova Scotia. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Questions from Nova Scotia

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you work in Nova Scotia?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Nova Scotia and the rest of Cheshire West and Chester. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Landlord and trade work in Nova Scotia

For anyone letting property in or around Nova Scotia, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, 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.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

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.
