Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole basin

For a price in Hale Green, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How we handle sink repair in Hale Green

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Common call-outs are for damage to a basin in a vanity unit and cracks starting at the waste, across vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hale Green

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 work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hale Green as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hale Green questions

Do you restore period basins?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you cover Hale Green?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Common problems we fix in Hale Green

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips on the rim or front edge

Comparing quotes

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Hale Green?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Honest limits

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

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not overtighten taps

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

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
