What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Woodford Wells. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

The process

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

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Woodford Wells

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

People normally call us when they notice something like this:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • An antique basin with chips

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Woodford Wells

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Letting agents often send us photos 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.

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Everything repaired in place

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
