Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What affects the price in Upwey
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Upwey. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
Most clients in Upwey get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Upwey
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
What you get with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No need to remove anything

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
