For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Sink repair in Duloe without replacing anything

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is generally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are crazing in the glaze and chips on the rim or front edge.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Repair or replace in Duloe?

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • A fixed quote before booking

Common problems we fix in Duloe

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips on a built-in basin

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Duloe

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

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re 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. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
