Sink repair for Stanwell homes

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  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

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

When to call us in Stanwell

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A chipped vanity basin

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

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

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Should you replace it?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Stanwell questions

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you cover the entire of Surrey?

Everywhere in the UK, Stanwell included. Travel is included in the price.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
