Trusted sink repair in Fillongley

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Coventry and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Sink repair at your home in Fillongley

Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We regularly repair antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are fine cracks across the glaze and a crack near the taps.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Coventry.

Before and after: a damaged ceramic basin restored

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

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, and the work is guaranteed.

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. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaks from the fittings

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

What we work on

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

Your questions about sink repair in Fillongley

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Do you work in Fillongley?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Fillongley for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What we do, step by step

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 are doing. 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 check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Common problems we fix in Fillongley

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

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

  • Chips around the rim
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips on a built-in basin

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What preparation is included
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use gentle cleaners

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

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.
