Trusted sink repair in Somerford

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  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. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

About our sink repair in Somerford

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and chips on the rim or front edge, across enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and antique & period basins.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Somerford

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Somerford use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

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.

Somerford questions

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Frequently. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

How much does sink repair cost in Somerford?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Are there extra charges for Somerford?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. 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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No need to remove anything
