What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

Polmont questions

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Across the UK, so Polmont is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Are there extra charges for Polmont?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How to compare quotes

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

If you are in Polmont and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How to look after the repair

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

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use mild cleaners only

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

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

For landlords and businesses

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

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
