What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IP17 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Landlord and trade work in Coldfair Green

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

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

How much does sink repair cost in Coldfair Green?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
