Trusted sink repair in Cricklewood

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

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

Materials we repair

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

Sink repair at your home in Cricklewood

We match the glaze as well as the colour. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are a crazed, tired basin and chips around the rim.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

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.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Cricklewood and the rest of Greater London. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cricklewood. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Cricklewood, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we’re called out for in Cricklewood

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

Before you book anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cricklewood

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
