Questions from Tonge
Do you cover Tonge?
We do. We send a technician to Tonge for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How much does sink repair cost in Tonge?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
