What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

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

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use gentle cleaners

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Your questions about sink repair in Sinderby

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you cover the entire of North Yorkshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Sinderby and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Usually, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A chipped basin edge

  • An antique basin with chips

Comparing quotes

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
