Before and after: a damaged ceramic basin restored

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sutton Poyntz

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Everything repaired in place

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Common problems we fix in Sutton Poyntz

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Crazing in the glaze

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Aftercare tips

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

  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you are in Sutton Poyntz and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
