Sink repair at your home in Coppits Hill

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Common call-outs are for knocks from hair straighteners and crazing in the glaze, on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Before and after: a chip on the front of a bathroom basin repaired

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coppits Hill use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

Most customers in Coppits Hill get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Questions from Coppits Hill

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Get chips repaired early

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

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
