How we handle sink repair in Peppard Hill

Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people contact us are a crazed, tired basin and an original basin worth saving.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Peppard Hill as everywhere else we work.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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.

What sink repair costs

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

  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Peppard Hill use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Your questions about sink repair in Peppard Hill

Will the price change on the day?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

How do I get a price for sink repair in Peppard Hill?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Peppard Hill is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
