When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get 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 will get a fixed figure back.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Do you need sink repair in Knapp?

Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Cracks starting at the waste

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Knapp. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Everything repaired in place
