Repair or replace: which is better?

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about sink repair in Yorkley Slade

How much does sink repair cost in Yorkley Slade?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Surface cracks can normally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Yorkley Slade. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
