Your questions about sink repair in Fishtoft Drove

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Fishtoft Drove included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you need sink repair in Fishtoft Drove?

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • A chipped basin edge
  • An antique basin with chips

Before booking anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

  • Colour-matched on site

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fishtoft Drove

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fishtoft Drove use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

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 near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Fishtoft Drove. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job without visiting.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
