Admaston questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Admaston?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you come to Admaston?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Admaston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Common problems we fix in Admaston

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

Common reasons people in Admaston contact us include:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • An antique basin with chips
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How to look after the finish

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • We leave the room as we found it

What affects the price in Admaston

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  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

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses

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

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
