Need sink repair in Bardney?

Bardney: your questions answered

Does someone need to be in?

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

Are there extra charges for Bardney?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Sink repair at your home in Bardney

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. If you’re dealing with an original basin worth saving and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, we can help, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

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.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

What affects the price in Bardney

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bardney

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bardney as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

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

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LN3 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
