About our sink repair in Grateley

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. Whether it’s chips on the rim or front edge and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Grateley

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Read our pricing.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Honest limits

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

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

What affects the price in Grateley

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Your questions about sink repair in Grateley

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

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 I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

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

Do you work in Grateley?

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

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.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
