Sink repair for Portsmouth Point homes

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PO1 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Common problems we fix in Portsmouth Point

Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Chips around the rim
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Portsmouth Point: your questions answered

How much does sink repair cost in Portsmouth Point?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Are there extra charges for Portsmouth Point?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you work in Portsmouth Point?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Portsmouth Point and the rest of Portsmouth. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
