Your questions about sink repair in Spennithorne

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Plumbing leaks

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Spennithorne

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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

What happens on the day

There’s 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 couple of hours for most chips.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

You don’t 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 quote.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Spennithorne. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole basin

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Spennithorne as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
