Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

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

Period and antique

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

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Questions from Oldbury

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

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.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair cannot fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Oldbury. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Signs you need sink repair in Oldbury

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.

  • A period basin that needs restoring

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
