DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kington Langley: your questions answered

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it messy?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

How much does sink repair cost in Kington Langley?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is repairing better 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.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Kington Langley, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Wiltshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
