Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Plumbing leaks

Your questions about sink repair in South Leverton

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you cover the entire of Nottinghamshire?

Everywhere in the UK, South Leverton included. Travel is included in the price.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it messy?

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

Is repairing better 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.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What affects the price in South Leverton

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use gentle cleaners

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
