Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

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

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use mild cleaners only

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Questions from Wormit

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

How much does sink repair cost in Wormit?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your DD6 postcode.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
