Questions from Shute End
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
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.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Sink repair in Shute End without replacing anything
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are cracks starting at the waste and a chipped basin edge.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
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.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
