Questions from Putnoe
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your MK41 postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Putnoe. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One price list for the whole UK
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colour-matched on site

For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Putnoe as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
