Sink repair near Heacham

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Don’t overtighten taps

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Signs you need sink repair in Heacham

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A crack near the taps
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before booking

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Repair or replace in Heacham?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Heacham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Landlord and trade work in Heacham

For anyone letting property in or around Heacham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PE31 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Questions from Heacham

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you cover Heacham?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Heacham for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
