Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for West Cowick. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in West Cowick, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Get chips repaired early

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for West Cowick. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access

FAQs for West Cowick

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
