Our hiring checklist

How we handle sink repair in Hedgerley

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We regularly repair antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and people most often call us about a chipped basin edge and an antique basin with chips.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Landlord and trade work in Hedgerley

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hedgerley use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use gentle cleaners

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Plumbing leaks

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Hedgerley

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

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
