For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use mild cleaners only

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

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

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Common questions in Deighton

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Deighton?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Do you work in Deighton?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Deighton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Signs you need sink repair in Deighton

Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A chipped basin edge
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

What sink repair costs

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DL6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  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 clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price
