Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Do not overtighten taps

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in West Lyng

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in West Lyng, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How much does sink repair cost in West Lyng?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your TA3 postcode.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes West Lyng. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Through cracks that let water out

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
