Questions from Hareby
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Signs you need sink repair in Hareby
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A crack near the taps

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Hareby
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lincolnshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For anyone letting property in or around Hareby, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
