Sink repair for Little Witcombe homes

Should you replace it?

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Little Witcombe. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

When to call us in Little Witcombe

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A chipped vanity basin

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How the colour is matched
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

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

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
