What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Salcombe Regis. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from photos 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, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What your basin is made of matters

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.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Questions from Salcombe Regis

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Are there extra charges for Salcombe Regis?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Typically, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Salcombe Regis?

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

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Salcombe Regis

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Plumbing leaks

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