10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about sink repair in Longhorsley

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you come to Longhorsley?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Longhorsley. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Longhorsley. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode

Most customers in Longhorsley get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Longhorsley

For anyone letting property in or around Longhorsley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Repair or replace in Longhorsley?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
