FAQs for Upper Bruntingthorpe

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Normally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Upper Bruntingthorpe?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  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

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Leicestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

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

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most clients in Upper Bruntingthorpe get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
