What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

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

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Do you need sink repair in Padside?

Fine crazing in the glaze is normally down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

Comparing quotes

  • How the colour is matched
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Padside

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Widespread crazing

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

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

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.
