Thurleigh questions

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you cover Thurleigh?

We do. We send a technician to Thurleigh for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Signs you need sink repair in Thurleigh

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Cracks starting at the waste

Before booking anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

See our prices page.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thurleigh as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

What affects the price in Thurleigh

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your MK44 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
