Landlords, agents and businesses in Bricket Wood

If you manage property in Bricket Wood, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hertfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

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.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Bricket Wood. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your AL2 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Your questions about sink repair in Bricket Wood

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How much does sink repair cost in Bricket Wood?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your AL2 postcode.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Will you remove the sink?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Can I fix it myself?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Why repair rather than replace?

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
