What affects the price in Chapeltown

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Sink repair in Chapeltown, done in place

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with chips on a built-in basin and fine cracks across the glaze, we can normally put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Common questions in Chapeltown

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. 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.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What we are called out for in Chapeltown

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

Common reasons people in Chapeltown contact us are:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A crack near the taps

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

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.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
