10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Puttenham

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why Puttenham clients choose us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We leave the room as we found it

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

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

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

FAQs for Puttenham

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
