Advice
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Town Yetholm. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, 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.
Send photos for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Town Yetholm: your questions answered
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Are there extra charges for Town Yetholm?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Town Yetholm is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Do you need sink repair in Town Yetholm?
Fine crazing in the glaze is usually down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Look out for these signs:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Crazing in the glaze
- Chips around the rim
Before booking anyone
- If travel is included in the price
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How soon you can use it again
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use mild cleaners only
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
