Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

How much does sink repair cost in South Hanningfield?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What affects the price in South Hanningfield
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire basin

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
