Sink repair in Bekesbourne

Sink repair in Bekesbourne, done in place

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. Common call-outs are for chips on the rim or front edge and cracks starting at the waste, on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Bekesbourne and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Can I fix it myself?

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 anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

If you are in Bekesbourne and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing 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. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Questions from Bekesbourne

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bekesbourne

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

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
