DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

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

When to call us in Nunthorpe

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who will actually do the work
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Your questions about sink repair in Nunthorpe

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.

Do you come to Nunthorpe?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Nunthorpe from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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