Common questions in Copley

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Frequently. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Do you come to Copley?

We do. Technicians travel to Copley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Get chips repaired early

Use gentle 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 can’t put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material

Most customers in Copley get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
