Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hapsford use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How we handle sink repair in Hapsford

From cloakroom basins to period pieces, in ceramic, composite and enamel. Taps and wastes stay connected. Common call-outs are for cracks starting at the waste and a period basin that needs restoring, on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

What we’re called out for in Hapsford

Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • A crack near the taps
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from Hapsford

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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 photos.
