Sink repair near Kexbrough

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. 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.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • 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.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you are in Kexbrough and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Questions from Kexbrough

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you come to Kexbrough?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Kexbrough and the rest of Barnsley. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Is it messy?

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

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Chips around the rim
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips on a built-in basin

Repairing versus replacing in Kexbrough

Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
