Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Crooked Billet use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Your questions about sink repair in Crooked Billet

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Surface cracks can usually be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Crooked Billet included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

What sink repair costs

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Crooked Billet, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Related advice

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

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

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Crooked Billet?

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Read our full price list.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

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

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
