Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Why repair rather than replace?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

The process

When we visit, 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 couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Marton

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Marton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

For a price in Marton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
