What affects the price in Raithby

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

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

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.

Repair or replace in Raithby?

Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

See our prices page.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Raithby questions

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Raithby?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
