How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Natural light rather than flash

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, 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. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Get chips repaired early

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

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

FAQs for Stokesby

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

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

Are there extra charges for Stokesby?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

When to call us in Stokesby

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Common reasons people in Stokesby contact us are:

  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
