Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Landlord and trade work in Acres Nook

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Acres Nook as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Acres Nook. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole basin

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Common questions in Acres Nook

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Acres Nook?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

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

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Often. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Repairing versus replacing in Acres Nook

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
