Sink repair for Ruislip homes

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

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

About our sink repair in Ruislip

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with cracks starting at the waste and a chipped basin edge, we can generally put it right, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Ruislip and across Greater London.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you need sink repair in Ruislip?

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A period basin that needs restoring

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use mild cleaners only

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Common questions in Ruislip

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do you work in Ruislip?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Ruislip. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

What a repair cannot fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy.

  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. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price
