Questions from Hardley

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you disconnect the taps?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

How much does sink repair cost in Hardley?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

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.

Sink repair in Hardley without replacing anything

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. Common call-outs are for a period basin that needs restoring and a chipped vanity basin, across vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Before and after: a crack on the edge of a basin repaired

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hardley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

10 questions to ask before you book

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hardley. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

For anyone letting property in or around Hardley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
