Questions from Fulwell

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Fulwell included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Fulwell

A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

What we are called out for in Fulwell

Fine crazing in the glaze is normally down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice

  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  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. The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Through cracks that let water out
