DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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.

Signs you need sink repair in Little Woolgarston

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

People normally call us when they notice something like this:

  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A crack near the taps
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

10 questions to ask before booking

Little Woolgarston: your questions answered

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Usually, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

When can you do it?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you cover the whole of Dorset?

The entire UK, including all of Dorset. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Are there extra charges for Little Woolgarston?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

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.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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 clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

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.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Should you replace it?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
