Should you replace it?

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No need to remove anything
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

FAQs for Westhumble

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your RH5 postcode.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Westhumble included. Travel is included in the price.

Do you come to Westhumble?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Westhumble and the rest of Surrey. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Get chips repaired early

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlord and trade work in Westhumble

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Westhumble as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Related advice

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
