Need sink repair in Pollington?

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Sink repair at your home in Pollington

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We’re frequently asked to fix a period basin that needs restoring and chips around the rim, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pollington

If you manage property in Pollington, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging 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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Pollington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

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

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DN14 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

10 questions to ask before you book

Pollington questions

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How much does sink repair cost in Pollington?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

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