How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Sink repair at your home in Wymeswold

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. Nothing is taken off the wall. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the rim or front edge and a period basin that needs restoring.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wymeswold use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Wymeswold: your questions answered

Do you work in Wymeswold?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Wymeswold from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will you remove the sink?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Are there extra charges for Wymeswold?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What areas do you cover?

All of Leicestershire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

10 questions to ask before you book

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use mild cleaners only

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repair or replace in Wymeswold?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Wymeswold. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
