Sink repair for Goldenhill homes

Sink repair at your home in Goldenhill

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Common call-outs are for chips on a built-in basin and a crazed, tired basin, in enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Questions from Goldenhill

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Goldenhill and the rest of Stoke-on-Trent. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

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 is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you cover Goldenhill?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Goldenhill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

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.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Goldenhill?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Repairing versus replacing in Goldenhill

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
