How we handle sink repair in Roston

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is generally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with cracks around the tap holes or waste and a chipped basin edge, we can help, on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins alike.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Widespread crazing

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Everything repaired in place

Landlord and trade work in Roston

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For anyone letting property in or around Roston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

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, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Roston. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Roston, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

FAQs for Roston

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can you repair an antique basin?

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

What happens next?

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

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is there any odour?

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
