Sink repair for Canwick homes

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, 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.

For anyone letting property in or around Canwick, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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 clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Canwick: your questions answered

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Do you work in Canwick?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Canwick. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Through cracks that let water out

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Canwick

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

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
