Need sink repair in Clapham Green?

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

How we handle sink repair in Clapham Green

Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and people most often call us about an antique basin with chips and chips on a built-in basin.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When to call us in Clapham Green

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Chips around the rim
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • An original basin worth saving

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  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 tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Clapham Green, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What affects the price in Clapham Green

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size

Most customers in Clapham Green get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
