About our sink repair in Rattar

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Whether it’s crazing in the glaze and a chipped basin edge, we can help, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  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 clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rattar

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rattar as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Do you need sink repair in Rattar?

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Crazing in the glaze

Before booking anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • If travel is included in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

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

Materials we work on in Rattar

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Rattar: your questions answered

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Should you replace it?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Rattar. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before you book
