How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Your questions about sink repair in Rock Ferry
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Rock Ferry?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Landlord and trade work in Rock Ferry
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Repair chips before they stain
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
