How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Get a quote

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stibbard

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Signs you need sink repair in Stibbard

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

Common reasons people in Stibbard contact us include:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A chipped basin edge
  • An original basin worth saving

Questions to ask before you book

  • What preparation is included
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before booking

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Antique & period basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

Repair or replace: which is better?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
