Sink repair for Foul Anchor homes

About our sink repair in Foul Anchor

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. If you are dealing with crazing in the glaze and an original basin worth saving, we can typically put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Questions from Foul Anchor

Do you work in Foul Anchor?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Foul Anchor and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Foul Anchor included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Are you accredited?

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

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

  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. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Foul Anchor. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Any details about the material

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Foul Anchor, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
