Can you price it without visiting?

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common problems we fix in Coalshaw Green

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

Our hiring checklist

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we work on in Coalshaw Green

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

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Coalshaw Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
