Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Widespread crazing

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Questions from Norrington Common

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Wiltshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Do you work in Norrington Common?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Norrington Common from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Norrington Common as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SN12 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How to care for the repair

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

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

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

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
