What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Snow Hill. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Snow Hill, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should you replace it?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Snow Hill questions

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you cover Snow Hill?

We do. Technicians travel to Snow Hill from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
