Sink repair near Stoke Hammond

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We work on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins, and people most often call us about a chipped vanity basin and cracks around the tap holes or waste.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Milton Keynes.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stoke Hammond

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For anyone letting property in or around Stoke Hammond, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

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. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stoke Hammond. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Stoke Hammond, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Stoke Hammond

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

Before booking anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Common questions in Stoke Hammond

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Usually, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

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.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
