What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Plumbing leaks

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

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

Landlords, agents and businesses in Skeffling

If you manage property in Skeffling, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Skeffling as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Skeffling, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repairing versus replacing in Skeffling

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Common questions in Skeffling

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Generally, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

Do you cover Skeffling?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Skeffling from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Skeffling?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Are there extra charges for Skeffling?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
