How to compare quotes

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Widespread crazing

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Do not overtighten taps

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Loughton

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What affects the price in Loughton

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Loughton, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Loughton

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Loughton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Take a look at our pricing.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

FAQs for Loughton

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you come to Loughton?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Loughton. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

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