When to call us in Aldreth

These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A crack near the taps
- Chips around the rim
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A crazed, tired basin
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

Sink repair in Aldreth without replacing anything
Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and people most often call us about chips from dropped toiletries and chips on the rim or front edge.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

FAQs for Aldreth
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Aldreth
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aldreth as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
Repairing versus replacing in Aldreth
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Plumbing leaks
- Through cracks that let water out
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Get chips repaired early
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
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 send back a fixed quote and some dates.
