Your questions about sink repair in Horsington
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you come to Horsington?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Horsington. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Horsington
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Horsington as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use gentle cleaners
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not overtighten taps
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
