FAQs for Rimswell
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you cover Rimswell?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Rimswell and the rest of East Riding of Yorkshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your HU19 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire basin
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repair or replace in Rimswell?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
