DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Ugley Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

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

What affects the price in Ugley Green

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Ugley Green, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

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

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Do not overtighten taps

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Everything repaired in place

Questions from Ugley Green

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you cover the entire of Essex?

The whole UK, including all of Essex. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

How much does sink repair cost in Ugley Green?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Are you accredited?

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

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
