Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Welsh Frankton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Questions from Welsh Frankton
Do you come to Welsh Frankton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Welsh Frankton. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Are there extra charges for Welsh Frankton?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Welsh Frankton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Plumbing leaks
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
