Sink repair in Hadlow

Sink repair in Hadlow without replacing anything

We repair bathroom basins, cloakroom basins, vanity units and period basins, whatever they’re made of. There is no plumbing to disconnect. We work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are knocks from hair straighteners and an antique basin with chips.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Don’t overtighten taps

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 near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

FAQs for Hadlow

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

Do you come to Hadlow?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hadlow and the rest of Kent. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover the entire of Kent?

Across the UK, and that includes Hadlow. Prices don’t change with location.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hadlow

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  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

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

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

What affects the price in Hadlow

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
