Sink repair near Little Somerford

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Period and antique

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

What affects the price in Little Somerford

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole basin

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

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

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

Little Somerford: your questions answered

How much does sink repair cost in Little Somerford?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Do you cover the entire of Wiltshire?

All of Wiltshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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.
