About our sink repair in Coxwold

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Typical jobs include knocks from hair straighteners and a crack near the taps, in Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Coxwold and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What affects the price in Coxwold

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Plumbing leaks

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

Our hiring checklist

The process

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Coxwold questions

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Do you work in Coxwold?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Coxwold and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
