About our sink repair in Hawridge

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. Whether it’s damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can help, on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should you replace it?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Landlord and trade work in Hawridge

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Questions from Hawridge

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is my repair covered?

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

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What affects the price in Hawridge

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Hawridge. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

The process

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

Most customers in Hawridge get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
