How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Repair chips before they stain
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Common questions in Burnfoot
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How much does sink repair cost in Burnfoot?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
