How we handle sink repair in Sandwich Bay Estate

We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Typical jobs include chips around the rim and chips on a built-in basin, on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CT13 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Landlord and trade work in Sandwich Bay Estate

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
