The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Commondale

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Common questions in Commondale

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Commondale. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

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

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
