Questions from Fersfield Common

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Do you charge for travel?

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

How much does sink repair cost in Fersfield Common?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use mild cleaners only

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

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

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Fersfield Common. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job.
