How we handle sink repair in Davington

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is generally repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are a crazed, tired basin and chips on the rim or front edge.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Davington

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Honest limits

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

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Widespread crazing
  • Through cracks that let water out

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Davington

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
