Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

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

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

FAQs for Eastrea

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Eastrea.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Eastrea

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Get chips repaired early

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

When to call us in Eastrea

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Crazing in the glaze

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • If travel is included in the price

Repair or replace in Eastrea?

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. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our prices page.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can

What affects the price in Eastrea

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.
