Your questions about sink repair in Ridgeway
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can give you a fixed quote.

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 hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
