Sink repair in Catterton

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 is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Sink repair in Catterton without replacing anything

We repair bathroom basins, cloakroom basins, vanity units and period basins, whatever they’re made of. Taps and wastes stay connected. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on a built-in basin and a period basin that needs restoring, in antique & period basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Catterton. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For a price in Catterton, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Common questions in Catterton

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What do you need from me?

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

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across North Yorkshire.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

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