FAQs for Bulwark

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

Are you accredited?

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

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Can landlords book you?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What affects the price in Bulwark

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

When to call us in Bulwark

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A chipped basin edge
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips on a built-in basin

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before booking

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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