Questions from Barnehurst

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you restore period basins?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Barnehurst?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Should you replace it?

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why Barnehurst clients choose us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Everything repaired in place

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Barnehurst. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barnehurst use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
