For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Scamblesby, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price

Advice
Scamblesby: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you cover the whole of Lincolnshire?
We cover the whole UK, including Scamblesby and the rest of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Frequently. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
