How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

How we handle sink repair in Horseheath

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. If you are dealing with a chipped vanity basin and knocks from hair straighteners, we can typically put it right.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Natural light rather than flash

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Widespread crazing

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

Materials we work on in Horseheath

  • Enamelled basins

FAQs for Horseheath

Do you cover the whole of Cambridgeshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Horseheath and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  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 tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
