DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What affects the price in Bardon

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Bardon: your questions answered

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Leicestershire.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Bardon included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Signs you need sink repair in Bardon

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A chipped basin edge
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

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

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
