Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

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

Your questions about sink repair in Dunkeswick

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

How much does sink repair cost in Dunkeswick?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is my repair covered?

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

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunkeswick

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why Dunkeswick clients choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour-matched on site

Do you need sink repair in Dunkeswick?

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • A chipped vanity basin

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
