How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Common problems we fix in Barnetby le Wold

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

Look out for these signs:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • A period basin that needs restoring

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Barnetby le Wold

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should you replace it?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

What affects the price in Barnetby le Wold

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
