Landlords, agents and businesses in Raveningham

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Should you replace it?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Raveningham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Your questions about sink repair in Raveningham

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Will you remove the sink?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Widespread crazing

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
