Your questions about sink repair in Pale Green
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Pale Green included. Travel is included in the price.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

What your basin is made of matters
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 carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Pale Green. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole basin
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CB9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing
- Plumbing leaks
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Work for landlords and builders
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.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
