DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Your questions about sink repair in Welham Green
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Do you need sink repair in Welham Green?
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An original basin worth saving
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- A chipped basin edge
- A chipped vanity basin

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Welham Green as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

What affects the price in Welham Green
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
