What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Sink repair in Hooley without replacing anything

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Typical jobs include cracks starting at the waste and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, in vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Hooley

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Hooley included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you come to Hooley?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Hooley and the rest of Greater London. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Repair chips before they stain

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should you replace it?

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

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
