FAQs for Taynton

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Taynton?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is there any odour?

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

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Taynton, and we will reply with a fixed price.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
