Sink repair in Liverton Street, done in place

Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. If you are dealing with a chipped basin edge and cracks starting at the waste, we can usually put it right.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Liverton Street: your questions answered

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Kent. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Widespread crazing

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Liverton Street

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

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 sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use mild cleaners only

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, 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. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Repairing versus replacing in Liverton Street

Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. 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.
