Should you replace it?

A new basin often means 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 each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Read our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

What affects the price in Banham

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Banham

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Banham use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Banham: your questions answered

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?

We work UK-wide, so Banham is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How much does sink repair cost in Banham?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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