Common questions in Branscombe

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Sink repair in Branscombe, done in place

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Typical jobs include chips from dropped toiletries and chips on the rim or front edge, across Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Branscombe. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your EX12 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Get a quote

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
