Sink repair in Stoke Charity

How we handle sink repair in Stoke Charity

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair antique & period basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are cracks around the tap holes or waste and knocks from hair straighteners.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Hampshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Stoke Charity?

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 with your SO21 postcode.

Are you accredited?

How quickly can you book me in?

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

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

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

If you’re in Stoke Charity and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
