FAQs for Northwood Green

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

How do I get a price for sink repair in Northwood Green?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Common problems we fix in Northwood Green

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

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

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • An antique basin with chips

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Northwood Green

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Northwood Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole basin

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Repair or replace in Northwood Green?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
