What affects the price in Bunkers Hill

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your OX5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Bunkers Hill: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you come to Bunkers Hill?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Bunkers Hill from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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.

What we are called out for in Bunkers Hill

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

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you 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. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Repair or replace in Bunkers Hill?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One price list for the entire UK

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Use gentle cleaners

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
