FAQs for Newlands

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One visit for most repairs
  • One price list for the entire UK

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Newlands. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Newlands. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you’re in Newlands and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Landlord and trade work in Newlands

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Our hiring checklist

What a repair cannot fix

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

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
