Landlords, agents and businesses in Hade Edge

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.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

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

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.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Hade Edge

How we price sink repair

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

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Hade Edge: your questions answered

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

How to compare quotes

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price
