Sink repair for Tatsfield homes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Sink repair at your home in Tatsfield

From cloakroom basins to period pieces, in ceramic, composite and enamel. Taps and wastes stay connected. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks starting at the waste and chips on the rim or front edge.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What affects the price in Tatsfield

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Tatsfield. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Questions from Tatsfield

Do the materials smell?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
