How to compare quotes

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What sink repair costs

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

If you are in Pemberton and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why Pemberton customers choose us

  • No need to remove anything
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Common questions in Pemberton

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will you remove the sink?

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

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
