Hawks Stones questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Generally, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

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

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Sink repair in Hawks Stones, done in place

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. Whether it’s damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and fine cracks across the glaze, we can generally put it right.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Hawks Stones

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use mild cleaners only

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hawks Stones

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

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.

What affects the price in Hawks Stones

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A chipped basin edge
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
