Your questions about sink repair in Brockton

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Do the materials smell?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

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

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Repairing versus replacing in Brockton

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our full price list.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Brockton. The price depends on:

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

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole basin

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SY5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Vanity unit basins

What we are called out for in Brockton

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Chips around the rim

Questions to ask before you book

  • What preparation is included
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

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

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
