Need sink repair in Upper Heyford?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Sink repair in Upper Heyford, done in place

We match the glaze as well as the colour. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Common call-outs are for knocks from hair straighteners and a crazed, tired basin, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Choosing a repair company

Upper Heyford questions

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Upper Heyford and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

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

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Upper Heyford

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What affects the price in Upper Heyford

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
