How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  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 clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Sink repair in Trottiscliffe without replacing anything

Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are a chipped basin edge and crazing in the glaze.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

When can you do it?

What does sink repair cost?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Why repair rather than replace?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trottiscliffe use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What affects the price in Trottiscliffe

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
