Questions from Emersons Green

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

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.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

How we handle sink repair in Emersons Green

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. If you’re dealing with damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and crazing in the glaze, we can normally put it right, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Emersons Green. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid abrasive pads

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

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
