Holbeck Woodhouse questions

Does someone need to be in?

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

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

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 you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Common problems we fix in Holbeck Woodhouse

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

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

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

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

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

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

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Holbeck Woodhouse. The price comes down to:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
