How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Nether Compton

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Do you need sink repair in Nether Compton?

Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Common questions in Nether Compton

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Nether Compton is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Will you remove the sink?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Get chips repaired early

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
