How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your EX6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Use gentle cleaners

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Period and antique

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

When to call us in Tedburn St Mary

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A crack near the taps
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips around the rim
  • A chipped vanity basin

  • What aftercare is recommended

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

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.
