FAQs for Brattleby

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you come to Brattleby?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Brattleby and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Repairing versus replacing in Brattleby

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

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

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Brattleby. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire basin

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
