Trusted sink repair in Hanley Castle

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Worcestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Sink repair in Hanley Castle without replacing anything

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. Typical jobs include damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and cracks around the tap holes or waste, across antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

FAQs for Hanley Castle

Do you disconnect the taps?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Will there be a smell?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Do you work in Hanley Castle?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hanley Castle and the rest of Worcestershire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Worcestershire.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaks from the fittings

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Get chips repaired early

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

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  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. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
