Should you replace it?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in New Mill End

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you cover New Mill End?

We do. Technicians travel to New Mill End from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How do I get a price for sink repair in New Mill End?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LU1 postcode.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in New Mill End

For anyone letting property in or around New Mill End, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
