How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back

Most clients in Scotstoun get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins

What we are called out for in Scotstoun

Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A crack near the taps
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • A crazed, tired basin

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How soon you can use it again
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Repair or replace in Scotstoun?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No need to remove anything
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

FAQs for Scotstoun

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  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 the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
