What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

Related advice

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Do you need sink repair in Lazenby?

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

Questions to ask before booking

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Lazenby

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

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

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

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Lazenby. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Lazenby: your questions answered

Do you cover the whole of Redcar and Cleveland?

All of Redcar and Cleveland, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

How much does sink repair cost in Lazenby?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are there extra charges for Lazenby?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
