Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Ulley questions
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you come to Ulley?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Ulley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Are there extra charges for Ulley?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Ulley?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your S26 postcode.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

What sink repair costs

- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ulley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice
Repairing versus replacing in Ulley
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
