Sink repair at your home in Auldearn

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Typical jobs include cracks around the tap holes or waste and an antique basin with chips, on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

10 questions to ask before booking

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

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Advice

What affects the price in Auldearn

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings

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

What we work on

  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Auldearn, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Auldearn questions

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you cover Auldearn?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Auldearn. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Auldearn. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Why repair rather than replace?

Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
