Sink repair near Andersea

What affects the price in Andersea

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire basin

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Your questions about sink repair in Andersea

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Do you cover the entire of Somerset?

All of Somerset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What we are called out for in Andersea

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A chipped basin edge
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips on a built-in basin

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How to look after the finish

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Andersea as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents frequently send us photos 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.

Repair or replace in Andersea?

Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
