High Ellington: your questions answered

Do you come to High Ellington?

We do. Repair technicians travel to High Ellington from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do I have to be there?

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

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How much does sink repair cost in High Ellington?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Why repair rather than replace?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in High Ellington, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What affects the price in High Ellington

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

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

Most customers in High Ellington get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
