Sink repair in Maryton

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Sink repair in Maryton, done in place

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. Typical jobs include chips around the rim and cracks starting at the waste, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Maryton

For anyone letting property in or around Maryton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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

Questions from Maryton

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.

Will you remove the sink?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do I have to be there?

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

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, 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

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Common problems we fix in Maryton

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips around the rim
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
