Need sink repair in Charlton?

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

About our sink repair in Charlton

If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. If you are dealing with a period basin that needs restoring and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Most clients in Charlton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

What affects the price in Charlton

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Charlton. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Questions from Charlton

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Greater London.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Charlton?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your SE7 postcode.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

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.
