What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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

Should you replace it?

A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Barnhill. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Barnhill, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
