Common questions in Hampstead

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

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.

About our sink repair in Hampstead

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We work on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are a crack near the taps and an original basin worth saving.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Hampstead and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Should you replace it?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. 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.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Get a quote

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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.
