Your questions about sink repair in Mickleham

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Surrey. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Mickleham?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your RH5 postcode.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

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

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Can I fix it myself?

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  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 mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the following day.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mickleham as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Signs you need sink repair in Mickleham

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • An original basin worth saving
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Cracks starting at the waste

Before you book anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
