Sink repair for Temple Valley homes

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Get chips repaired early

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

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Sink repair in Temple Valley without replacing anything

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We’re often asked to fix fine cracks across the glaze and chips around the rim, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Temple Valley

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.

Do you work in Temple Valley?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Temple Valley. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Hampshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the next day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

What affects the price in Temple Valley

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Temple Valley. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you are in Temple Valley 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.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Temple Valley as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, 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.

Materials we work on in Temple Valley

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

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
