How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Questions from Bourtreehill

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Typically, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repair or replace in Bourtreehill?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
