Trusted sink repair in Penparc

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Penparc. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Your questions about sink repair in Penparc

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Can you quote from photos?

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

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Get chips repaired early

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Should you replace it?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we’re called out for in Penparc

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Chips around the rim
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

Questions to ask before booking

  • How to look after the finish
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Widespread crazing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
