Need sink repair in Priestwood Green?

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

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

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Plumbing leaks

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Questions from Priestwood Green

How do I get a price for sink repair in Priestwood Green?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can landlords book you?

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

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Normally, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

What affects the price in Priestwood Green

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Priestwood Green. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
