When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

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

Materials we work on in Graizelound

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

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 finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Older homes around Graizelound may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. A repair keeps the original.

Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Fixed quotes from pictures

See our Full price list.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Graizelound, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead. For a rural address like Graizelound, we plan the journey in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring everything needed for the sink repair, so there is no second trip.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What affects the price in Graizelound

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • The material, if you know it

Most customers in Graizelound get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Graizelound: your questions answered

Can you fix basins at a school or business in Graizelound?

Yes, and we are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited. Tell us about access and timings for the building.

Is it worth repairing old basins in a period home in Graizelound?

Usually: original pieces are frequently better made and harder to replace. We will give you an honest view from photos.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
