When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Kimbridge

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

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Kimbridge. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Kimbridge, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Common questions in Kimbridge

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

How much does sink repair cost in Kimbridge?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you cover Kimbridge?

We do. We send a technician to Kimbridge for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.

Common problems we fix in Kimbridge

Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • An antique basin with chips

Our hiring checklist

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

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

Should you replace it?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
