Questions from Chatham

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How much does sink repair cost in Chatham?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Repair or replace in Chatham?

Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No need to remove anything

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chatham

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Do you need sink repair in Chatham?

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.

People usually call us when they notice one of these:

  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Chatham, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Get chips repaired early

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
