Sink repair for Grafham homes

Should you replace it?

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Sink repair in Grafham without replacing anything

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. Our technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped basin edge and a period basin that needs restoring.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Grafham use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

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.

Common questions in Grafham

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

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

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you cover the whole of Cambridgeshire?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Grafham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Signs you need sink repair in Grafham

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A crack near the taps
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

Before you book anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
