Materials and what they mean for the repair

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 Navestock Heath

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

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Navestock Heath

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • The type of damage

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Where you are, by postcode

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only

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

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  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. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Your questions about sink repair in Navestock Heath

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Essex. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Essex.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Usually, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Navestock Heath

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Navestock Heath use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Plumbing leaks

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

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
