Sink repair near Pegwell

Common questions in Pegwell

Is there a guarantee?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

How we handle sink repair in Pegwell

If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped toiletries and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Pegwell. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Repair or replace in Pegwell?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One visit for most repairs

Read our pricing.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Widespread crazing

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in Pegwell

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How to care for the repair

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

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid abrasive pads

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
