About our sink repair in Milford

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is usually repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. If you are dealing with a period basin that needs restoring and chips on a built-in basin, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Milford

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

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

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Widespread crazing

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Milford questions

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Milford and the rest of Staffordshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
