DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  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

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

How we price sink repair

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Bradwell Waterside. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Can pets and children be at home?

Landlord and trade work in Bradwell Waterside

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.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Signs you need sink repair in Bradwell Waterside

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips around the rim
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
