South Reston questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you cover South Reston?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to South Reston and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How much does sink repair cost in South Reston?

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

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for South Reston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including South Reston. The price reflects:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole basin

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in South Reston, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
