Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tatton Dale

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Tatton Dale, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What your basin is made of matters

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

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Tatton Dale: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Do the materials smell?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Get chips repaired early

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
