Trusted sink repair in East Harptree

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How we handle sink repair in East Harptree

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Whether it’s a crack near the taps and a crazed, tired basin, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in East Harptree

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Should you replace it?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

When to call us in East Harptree

Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • A chipped vanity basin

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
