Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlord and trade work in Nun Monkton
If you manage property in Nun Monkton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Advice
Nun Monkton questions
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Usually, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Nun Monkton?
Repairs 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.
Are there extra charges for Nun Monkton?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you come to Nun Monkton?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Nun Monkton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you cover the entire of York?
Across the UK, so Nun Monkton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
