Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colour-matched on site
  • A fixed quote before booking

What affects the price in Grange

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Your questions about sink repair in Grange

Do you cover the whole of Dorset?

All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Are there extra charges for Grange?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you cover Grange?

We do. We send a technician to Grange for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use gentle cleaners

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

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

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Do you need sink repair in Grange?

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

Questions to ask before booking

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts
