DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  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. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the area is dry

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Questions from Bruntingthorpe

How do I get a price for sink repair in Bruntingthorpe?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Are there extra charges for Bruntingthorpe?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

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.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Bruntingthorpe, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Through cracks that let water out

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
