Sink repair for Salterswall homes

What affects the price in Salterswall

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Salterswall. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole basin

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Sink repair in Salterswall without replacing anything

Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, matching the colour and gloss. The basin stays on the wall. We’re often asked to fix a chipped basin edge and an antique basin with chips, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins.

Questions from Salterswall

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will you remove the sink?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Repair or replace in Salterswall?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Salterswall

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
