Repair or replace in Sibson?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

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.

Frequently. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

Do you hold any accreditations?

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Sibson. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
