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 carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to compare quotes

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Four Marks. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your GU34 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

FAQs for Four Marks

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Four Marks?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you cover Four Marks?

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

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

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

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Four Marks

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around Four Marks, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
