Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Common questions in Newton Burgoland

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do you cover Newton Burgoland?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Newton Burgoland and the rest of Leicestershire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Leicestershire.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Leicestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newton Burgoland use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Newton Burgoland. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LE67 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Choosing a repair company

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

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 reply with a fixed quote.
