Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

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

Your questions about sink repair in Fosdyke

Do you cover villages like Fosdyke?

We do: Fosdyke is covered like any town. Tell us if access is tricky.

My house in Fosdyke is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?

Typically, yes. Older basins are frequently worth repairing rather than replacing. Send us pictures and we will tell you what’s possible.

Is my repair covered?

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

Are there extra charges for Fosdyke?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you come to Fosdyke?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Fosdyke for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will it make a mess?

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

What affects the price in Fosdyke

Prices start from £95. Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PE20 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it. Somewhere as small as Fosdyke, access is typically the main thing to plan. Once we’re there, the sink repair works exactly as anywhere else.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fosdyke use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When to call us in Fosdyke

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A crack near the taps
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

For older houses around Fosdyke, near landmarks such as Church of All Saints, period sanitaryware is worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can.

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the colour is matched
