Sink repair near Loxwood

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Advice

Sink repair in Loxwood without replacing anything

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Our repair technicians work on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are crazing in the glaze and cracks around the tap holes or waste.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings

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

Materials we work on in Loxwood

What affects the price in Loxwood

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Your questions about sink repair in Loxwood

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

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

Do you need sink repair in Loxwood?

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • An original basin worth saving
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A crack near the taps
  • A crazed, tired basin

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. 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, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Landlords, agents and businesses in Loxwood

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
